[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which schools will have feeder rights to Jefferson?[/quote]

Brent, Chisholm, Van Ness, Amidon-Bowen. [/quote]

But Chisholm is the DL school. So would the DL program only serve those students?[/quote]

Primarily for now. I don’t know if there will be plans to give other schools a preference for lottery. But the strand program will be two classes, and maybe eventually 3 or more, so the DL kids will also be in classes with the other kids (the schedule is 8 total classes currently). Van Ness has Spanish as a special from pk3-5th, so while not DL, maybe it would provide those students with a more advanced option at some point during MS. I believe that all 6th graders currently take Spanish at Jefferson currently (with the Chisholm kids taking a more advanced option), which is different than the other Hill MSs. [/quote]

Sorry but no, having spanish as a special is a joke.  The kids might learn the alphabet and basic phrases but will not be at any level but beginner by the time they get to middle school.[/quote]
