[quote=Anonymous]Not PP, but I agree. Families definitely opt IN to immersion. No one’s choosing immersion (especially now that they’re doing 80/20) just to avoid their neighborhood school. Other option schools seem more likely to attract families who want to opt OUT of their neighborhood schools. JF needs to understand correlation does not equal causation. Perhaps families aren’t trying to avoid diversity (racial and/or economic) but are horrified by low test scores. Of course, school performance is linked to economic status (not always race. Look at some majaority white schools in Kentucky that happen to be very low income). But is it fair to say Arlington families want to get away from black/brown kids? No, it’s not. And JF wasn’t advocating for VLP to exist during Covid only. He wanted to fund the program in perpetuity. Despite having Virtual Virginia already available. So, spare me, dude.[/quote]
