[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reminder that native Spanish speaking is NOT the same thing as low income, especially in the context of Immersion at APS. [/quote] True, but again, in this context it is important since the immersion program is supposed to be 50/50.[/quote] It's important because the main argument against moving Immersion to Williamsburg is that it's inaccessible to the poor Hispanic community. The thing is, Claremont is 27% FARMS, so the kids going to the middle school that live closest to Gunston probably aren't poor anyway! The map in the Pre-CIP shows a lot come from Fairlington and Shirlington. There are definitely some lower income families from near Courthouse and Rosslyn, but Williamsburg isn't any further away from there than Gunston. Same for Buckingham. [/quote]
