[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From watching the pre-CIP table session #1 tonight, I am struck by how much credence has been given to the recommendations of an immersion “visioning” process that - as far as I know - was not publicly noticed.

I will be researching the issue further, but I am deeply troubled by the lack of transparency on this issue. Some random assortment of stakeholders say they want one, centrally located middle school immersion program and we upend an entire county’s boundaries accordingly?[/quote]

It's similar to the visioning process Montessori did. All from within the sub-community; not the APS community. So if you weren't aware of Montessori's visioning, you might look into that as well. [/quote]

Why in the world are we listening to these sub-groups? Arlington needs to focus on its regular, neighborhood schools and stop catering to a tiny fraction of students.[/quote]

Uh no. First, ther are thousands  of APS families at options. Second, their schools are just as important as yours, and the system must treat them with same respect. Can they move? Sure. But should they be shuffled like chess pieces because they are second-class compared with neighborhood? Absolutely not. [/quote]
