[quote=Anonymous]There was a lot of resentment and bad feelings on the part of the neighborhood parents against the Spanish immersion program. This was reasonable. But the school held an "encounter group" type meeting where people were encouraged to discuss their feelings about the issue. Instead of real issues (which I agree there are), many parents stood up and said they were tired of defending themselves to their CC neighbors who couldn't understand why anyone would send a kid to Rock Creek Forest, which has a much higher % of lower SES kids than other CC cluster schools. And there was just this underlying feeling of "we pay a lot of taxes, why should our kids go to school with poor kids" kind of thing. I found it ugly and upsetting.[/quote]
