[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some ASFS parents want to delay the changes so they can lobby for ASFS to become the option school, [b]rather than Key.[/b][/quote] Do they realize how idiotic that sounds? You can't make immersion a neighborhood school. You need families to buy-in to support the bilingual education and need to balance native Spanish speakers with those learning it. ASFS has for a long time been essentially the neighborhood school for the Key boundary since the "team" approach has ceased to function effectively. I needs to be made an actual neighborhood school and boundaries adjusted. APS is not going to make it an 800-student school. There is nothing super-special about ASFS that justifies it being a countrywide choice school. Multiple schools have science-oriented programs (Barrett, Hoffman-Boston, I believe). The only thing unique about ASFS is it has a lot of rich parents who bought it a nice science lab.[/quote] This.[/quote]
