[quote=Anonymous]I agree that it takes a commitment of the entire family as parents and taxpayers that we should be responsible in our commitment to the programs that we are applying.  The cases and the issues that are being brought up may be valid but definitely represent the minority of those applying.  In regards, to using the program to move to another school without interest in the program cannot be a frequent.  We are all in Montgomery County.  Although quality of education may not be equal, I can't imagine a parent going through this progress and dealing with transportation issues to change to one of these other schools.  Many of the immersion programs are not even located in the best schools or locations.  In regards to sibling preferences at least for those entering the same grade, they are not at an advantage.  For example twins, would effectively be considered one child.  They don't get two chances to get in the program.  You basically role the dice once.  They both get in or neither get entrance.

Why can't everybody just be thankful that we all have a chance to get into exceptional programs that are not offered everywhere like they are in Montgomery County?  Don't criticize others or the program that everybody here clearly wanted to be accepted.  My children have not been invited to the program which is disappointing.  However, I am still hopeful and hope to set a good example for my children with how I handle the situation.  So, let's support and congratulate each other and stop being so toxic.[/quote]
