[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be equitable, access to dual language schools should be available to everyone who wants it.

Native speakers will get a boost, but all English-dominant students should have an equal shot.

Dual-language is wildly popular in the city, but has detractors and is hard to make work within a neighborhood school structure. Make all of these opportunities city-wide schools, with entrance via the lottery, the way the immersion charters are.

It's the only fair thing to do. [/quote]

You can move IB for a dual language school; case closed.[/quote]

That is not a real solution and you know it when 80% of DC's public school population is economically disadvantaged. [/quote]

The economically disadvantaged aren't the ones asking for dual-language in their schools.[/quote]

Obviously you have never stepped foot in my neighborhood in ward 8. Or talked to any of us. [/quote]

New resident there I’m sure. And I’m sure the “poster” wasn’t talking about you.[/quote]
