[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see how such a bifurcated system cannot hurt the children who are excelling, e.g., the non-FARMS non-ESL kids.[b] What has the school done to keep the top from being dragged down[/b], or is the administration doing anything? Del Ray is a pretty yuppy upper-class neighborhood, so I cannot imagine parents of the non-FARMS kids and non-ESL kids being happy with settling. What do families do? When will there be a decision about the traditional calendar and all-immersion change? Or will there be?[/quote] It could change now that he's gone, but for years the previous superintendent made it quite clear that this wasn't a concern of his. [/quote] So true, PP. In fact, for those in ACPS who complained at any level (K-12), the prior Super said he had a "bus ready to take you to Fairfax" (paraphrasing but close to public words). [/quote]
