[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Brent parents will crap themselves if their kids have to go to school with the Potomac gardens kids. [/quote]

Many of the kids from Potomac Gardens attend charter schools.  Hence Tyler being 75% OOB.[/quote]

Where do you think the 25% IB kids are coming from? It’s the gardens. And you can’t argue that Brent’s parents wouldn’t crap themselves about sending their kids to school with those kids. It’s just a fact. [/quote]

The 25% is probably closer to half PG/half non-subsidized housing.  Where do you think the Spanish Immersion families are coming from? [/quote]

Tyler is only 11% Latinx and only 26% IB. There should be a minimum of 20-25% (half of the immersion seats) to run a viable dual-language program. This program makes no sense to be in this location.

Move it to Ward 4 and 5 where people speak the target language. [/quote]

Ward 6 also matters and needs a bilingual school. [/quote]
