[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This quote is from the article: “It is outrageous,” said Diego Uriburu, co-chair of the Montgomery County Latino Advocacy Coalition. “There are great inequities in terms of access. The majority of our families don’t even know these programs exist.” Sorry, I don't buy this. I have a second grader in MCPS. I received TWO phone calls about the Parent Questionnaire and BOTH were translated completely in Spanish. The questionnaire itself was also translated in Spanish. If your phone number is in the directory, then you also received this message. We're at a Title 1 School, so I completely understand that some people have more barriers than others, but the above quote is just ridiculous. [/quote] I don't understand why this man, who is a leader in the MC Latino Advocacy Coalition, isn't making it his job to spread the word about these programs instead of whining that there are Latinos who are unaware of these programs.
