[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, firing up Google translate is so hard. I have to rub two sticks together as fast as I can to translate elementary school “homework”. Go learn something about what dual language immersion is. [/quote]

Look, you are not helping your cause here. I am a supporter of Immersion. In fact, had we gotten in, we likely would have sent our kid there. But it's not for everyone and it should always be a choice, not forced, and not a "right" either. Everyone should have the same chance to get in, or not. APS did the right thing by abolishing the neighborhood preferrence. And they're doing the right thing, for most, by swapping schools. If you're truly worried about making sure Hispanic ELL or ED students continue to have equitable access to Immersion, then you would support the changes to admission policies, and instead of demanding to "keep Key on Key," you would have spoken out months ago about moving Immersion closer to either Buckingham or the Western Pike. But that's not what you did, because that's not what your focus is either. Stop trying to use people to justify your selfish agenda. [/quote]

DP.  What’s your agenda, other than attacking other people’s motives, about which you know nothing?[/quote]

I have no agenda. You are welcome to your own opinions, but not your own facts. FACTS and DATA, not agendas or lobbying, should be driving every decision the school system makes. In this case, facts and data are driving this decision, and it's about time! [/quote]

Agree.

Data, yes, to a large degree.  But the superintendent finally put his foot down.[/quote]
