[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with PP. Tyler is basically two schools - one for poor kids and one for middle class kids. Kids in the regular classrooms get screwed, and if any "behaviors" pop up in the spanish program, they promptly kick the kid into the regular program. Don't do this at Miner. Really, just don't. Tyler should be a warning to all schools who try to do this. The dual language program does absolutely nothing to "lift up" the poor kids. It just adds segregation. [/quote] This. You're inbounds for Miner and didn't get a lucky lottery pull? Then make Miner a better school for everyone by bettering the programs they already have, not by segregating the haves and have nots. Mandarin? Seriously? I don't see how Mandarin would appeal to most of the IB population for Miner.[/quote]
