[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s the latter.  Backfilling massive attrition.  Notably, they took a record number of 5th graders from the waitlisf.  Clearly, those 5th graders want the path to DCI but who knows how much Spanish knowledge they have.  There is no proficiency test upon entry so the large numbers of new students in that grade and other older grades could significantly impact the Spanish instruction.[/quote]

Turning and turning in the widening gyre   
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the Mundo.[/quote]

I've wondered whether there is less attrition at some of the nearby schools that Mundo may have relied on previously. Langley poet, where art thou?[/quote]

We're at a dual language DCPS and there are definitely more families staying for elementary grades that would probably have gone to MV in years past. I even know of a few families that left MV and took OOB elementary seats to escape MV and keep the language. I bet many would take LAMB, DCB, or Stokes seats, but are passing on MV now.[/quote]

Our DCPS dual language lost a couple of K students  to MV this year.[/quote]
