[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who is committed to having my child learn a second language I think it is unfair that some kids get a space just to avoid their home school. But that is my opinion. There are always going to be ways where things seem unfair depending who is looking at it and how. When my kid didn't get a preschool space at a school I liked bc the class was filled with siblings it felt unfair but it was the policy and I accepted it. I'm sure if it was the other way around it would feel unfair bc it would negatively affect my family! I kept trying and we found something that worked for us. I think if there is a fight worth fighting it is that demand exceeds supply. [/quote]

Isn't it unfair that they have a home school that needs to be avoided?[/quote]

Exactly!!!
I believe mcps  needs to expand the way students can get into various school. For example if they can  allow residents to apply for any school that has opening (unfilled spaces after home school kids get in)  via lottery, or on a first come first serve basis .  That way, people who are doing the immersion for the purpose avoiding their home school may apply to something else. I think DC does something similar like this[/quote]

Or, MCPS could work to improve the home school.[/quote]
