[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spend some time at oyster or Bancroft, or at highly Latino DCPS schools like Seaton. All kinds of Latino families (working class, middle class, and wealthy) and they are happy.[/quote]

Oyster has a mile long wait list.

Bancroft is nowhere near my house.

Season isn’t much better than Mundo and is not bilingual.

But to you we should be happy to be educated right? Brown is brown. [/quote]

Lady, I'm a brown person, and my two kids go to Seaton. We've been there for years. Yesterday, we had a day-long multicultural celebration where each class celebrated a different culture where at least one student from the class had a family heritage. El Salvador, Haiti, Mexico, the DR, china, many many many more -- families brought food, kids dressed up, everyone was beaming all day long.

In addition to that, we have an ESL teacher ( a fully qualified master degree having teacher) attached to every grade to make sure that all the ESL kids are thriving. This is in addition to the fully qualified homeroom teachers for ELA and Math.

The principal and AP are both Latino and all correspondence/meetings/events are bilingual.

What does this have to do with Mundo?[/quote]

Responding to the person who thinks DCPS "treats Latinos like garbage"[/quote]

To be clear the response was “there is a multicultural day and that is the same as learning the language of your family”

Then more glee about schoolchildren losing their community and not getting a good education. [/quote]

It's not glee..but this is a charter school. Every parent has the option to walk into their IB school with a proof of address at any moment, and their child will be educated. So that reality is underlying the protest -- that is their option.[/quote]

You are right. It is clear that these parents do not what their IB. They want Mundo and they are protesting because they want the school to improve. [/quote]

Well, I do hope the school responds to the complaints and has the ability to correct them.[/quote]

LOLOLOLOL If that were going to happen it would be happening already.[/quote]
