[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking back and knowing what I know now I wish we would have gone for ATS instead of immersion. At the time, I thought dual language was important and now we are LITERALLY paying for it because of the cost of tutors. And even though DC qualified for summer school it was a joke this year. [/quote] Ugh, I’m sorry! I know immersion can be great - from a worldwide perspective, but it has to be done well, and honestly I think that it’s not for most kids. APS is largely pandering to a Hispanic population who apparently has to be begged to enroll… I know people love their existing schools, the ones they know and are happy with, but likely parents, if offered, including those with Hispanic heritage, would be happy, if immersion would be greatly scaled down in Arlington, and instead there were more rigorous curriculums either as options or as part of the neighborhood school.
