[quote=Anonymous]You can have successful immersion without 50% native speakers. Yes, it'd be nice if they could fill more of the native Spanish speaker spots, but APS is in a tricky position with that. They can't basically push one option school to a certain segment of the population without getting into some very tricky waters. If we have ANY option schools, they should be language immersion. Which is a real skill that kids carry with them their whole lives. I understand the other options have wonderful programs, but if we are cutting options, the one that provides a track through high school to become a life long skill should not be at the top of the list. But I do agree the boundaries for the neighborhood schools should be done first, then figure out the best spots for the option schools. I realize they won't do this because they don't want to move all the choice schools, but it would be one way to balance things county wide.[/quote]
