[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No school has the responsibility to educate all students: but if your school has to be defnesive about how that is not it's goal--while also not being any kind of test in... Then there is an issue. Incorporating new kids into a classroom is really not that complicated. If your educators can't handle it, then I'd worry about what they can handle... Or how little they are paid.[/quote]

So you think a school's reputation should be based on how well they incorporate new students?

I get that you're clearly uneducated and just angry, but there is no way a normal child can learn a language in a matter of weeks. Sure they can learn a few phrases and understand some nouns, but the older they get the harder it will be.  Furthermore I think diluting immersion schools by adding in kids that don't speak the target language is a terrible idea not only for the kids but for the teacher and other students.  I think the reason why LAMB kids speak excellent, grammatically correct Spanish is because they are speaking it since PK4. I am totally against Mundo Verde admitting kids at all levels too fwiw. The magical thinking that goes on with you people (he'll pick it up right away!) is alarming. I also get that LAMB has the whole Montessori system to worry about too.

What's so bad about DCPS?  If your kid doesn't speak Spanish or whatever, why can't the many English speaking charters and DCPS handle your kid?  Really asking. I promise you- every kid I know who entered MV in the later years that has no Spanish background does not speak Spanish beyond a couple phrases that impress their monolingual parents. [/quote]
