[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basically immersion and AtS programs end up as de facto size limited semi-private public schools filled by kids who live nearby. How are oak ridge kids even going to claremont — I thought Immersion was on an East-West divide — oak ridge should go to Key. [/quote] Key used to the be the only Immersion school. When demand got too high, APS realized it needed to expand the program into South Arlington. It started "school within a school" immersion at 3 elementary schools: Oakridge, Abingdon and Hoffman-Boston. When they eventually created Claremont years later, they honored the Immersion legacy at those three schools by giving them admission preference to Claremont. But as of this year that's all gone away and both Key & Claremont are strictly lottery schools. [/quote]
