[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn’t know that oyster adams accept English dominant students after 1st grade.[/quote] Yep, if you are coming from another bilingual. [/quote] Even if you are English dominant?[/quote] I'm genuinely intrigued by this comment. The idea that a kid who has been at a dual-lingua school for 7 years might not be qualified to attend 5th grade because they don't speak Spanish at home seems...off. If the belief really is that kids an't be proficient after 7 years of immersion then what's the point of immersion. For those at dual/immersion schools, is this type of judgment and classist approach representative?[/quote] I am the PP who made the comment. I had a hard time understanding why OP wrote English dominant, because I know that after 1st grade, there aren't separate English/Spanish dominant lotteries. I think OP has changed some details in her story and it doesn't make sense to me. [/quote]
