[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The mother is sent here with the kids while the father stays in Korea, and the family returns to Korea in the summer time. This is shocking. I had no idea that my tax money was being used this way.[/quote] That's kind of why the question is being asked. I'm not sure how I feel about these highly, highly coveted slots being given to foreign nationals, vs. permanent residents and/or citizens of the United States. [/quote] There are Koreans who game the system and it is done with a wink and a nod by FCPS and encouraged by one of the school board members who has made trips to Korea publicizing the school. Also, some are the offspring of people here on H-1B visas. For people who say "they are Americans" that is not quite accurate. For those who say why is this relevant: try to move to China or India or Finland specifically to send your kid to school there and see how far you get.[/quote]
