[quote=Anonymous]Immersion parent from SSIMS here with an outside perspective and some data: - French immesion enrollment been fairly robust (30 or more students per grade) while Spanish immersion has had 20 or fewer per grade. There is no issue at all between the two programs, and additional students from Westland would no doubt be welcome if they help push enrollment toward two sections per grade. - discilpline problems at "the other middle school"? Assuming this is not a code for supposed issues in more diverse schools, you should know that SSIMS has had an extaordinary administration in place that steadily improved behavior and brought up test scores (which track SES) across all subgroups. Check out the most recently available suspension data from MCPS at http://montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/sharedaccountability/reports/2009/SuspensionTables2009.pdf - just a guess, but if the Key/SSIMS boundary parents can continue to B-CC from Westland, it probably has less to do with Westland and more to do with the high school which by all accounts is a great place to study language.
