[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think all immersion programs should be eliminated.[/quote] Why? We love the LI program my kid is in. It has been great for him. If anything, the program should be expanded so that more kids have an opportunity to participate. It is not for every kid but for kids but it is a great program for the kids who are ready for it. There is a lot of research that shows that learning another language at a young age can help establish different pathways in the brain that help with learning and development. I am tired of people who think that anything that is different that their kid isn't in needs to be removed from the system. Many kids need gen ed but there are kids who do better in programs that challenge them (like LI or AAP). We are in a huge school district with lots of kids. Some need help through SPED programs. Some need to be pushed and challenged. Some need ESOL. There is nothing wrong with that. [/quote]
