[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If that is the true site i'm completely bummed. This county HAS TO improve the offerings. For K we have #185 for Spanish Immersion and #84 for French Immersion. [/quote]

This is such a bratty response. “HAS TO?!?” What do you think you’re entitled to? Public education? Surprise! You already have it. Go to your neighborhood school. PG County can improve in so many ways, but it already offers way more than most school districts across the country. Be thankful for what you have. Or, you know, continue whining that your precious may have to go to school with the poors.[/quote]

Excuse me what? Do you realize how ridiculous this response is? PG county has the highest taxes of any MD county and yet the schools are by and large subpar. It is not "bratty" to want better options. I don't care that my neighborhood school is "poor", since logically if it's my school I obviously live in the catchment area. I do care that there are repeated behavior issues and incidents amongst students and staff members that are not adequately addressed. So no, my son can't go there and furthermore, he won't. There are only two "specialty" program schools (I'm not counting Pullen because the performing arts aspect doesn't start until 3rd grade) that you are eligible for in each section of the county. Each and every year they have waiting lists in the thousands. If you don't think that's an issue, that's fine, however, I do. I pay taxes and I'm entitled to want more for what I'm paying out than a failing school option. [/quote]
