[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m going to be flames but ... Dual language gives many white people something to say to calm their flyover country down about sending kids to school in DC. “Yes many schools in DC are not very good. But at my kid’s school they are learning in both languages which will be such an advantage and makes it worth staying in the city...” Then there’s the unconscious (or maybe conscious) bias, not said out loud. A DC dual language school will have some poor kids, but they will be mostly Latino kids and their parents have a great work ethic and will support their kids’ education. [/quote] Yep, your rational is all completely wrong why parents send their kids to DL. Period. [/quote]
