[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Studies show that in early elementary, kids in immersion tend to be behind their peers in ELA. Not surprising since less ELA exposure. But by upper elementary, these kids catch up and then pass their non-immersion peers. Above is the overall trend. Of course each kid is different and some may not fall in that majority group.[/quote] Yes, this. The concern about children falling behind in English (long term) if they devote too much time to a second language in the early years is very …. 1970s. And debunked.[/quote] Then share the data that proves this point. MCPS students have been falling further and further behind in math and reading (started before the pandemic). Show any research that proves immersion programs will increase these test scores. MCPS wants to be all about the data except when it suits them to do something else. [/quote]
