[quote=Anonymous]Spanish immersion in what should be dual language schools appears to be for those elementary schools without a real cohort of incoming Spanish speakers from Spanish-speaking families. Tyler is far from the core of Spanish-speaking DC and Oyster’s neighborhood, once a part of Hispanic DC, gentrified to the point of having that community mostly move north and east just because it’s expensive. The lottery isn’t easy but you might get more kids who come in speaking Spanish at 3/4 at Oysrer than others if immersion rather than dual language is your goal at that age. For my part I would prefer dual language with at least a very large minority cohort of Spanish speaking kids. There are several DCPS and PCS like this. [/quote]
