[quote=Anonymous]We were at MVCS for several years, until our child was diagnosed with a learning difference and we moved to private. It just wasn’t realistic for teachers to meet my child’s needs plus the needs of 26 other kids at the same time, in two languages. FWIW DC takes Spanish in the new school and is not ahead of the rest of the class despite years of supposed dual language learning. The school board is supposedly going to be shutting down the faucet of “programmatic transfers” into MVCS that are really families fleeing Jefferson Houston. Hopefully that will help bring class sizes down. In general, my friends with neurotypical kids are still ok with the school, though many supplement with something at home too. I agree with other posters who said we have a weird reticence to discuss this, in Del Ray at least. It seems like that’s thawing and that would be a very positive change. Some sunshine is needed here. [/quote]
