[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to say that as a 16th Street Heights parent with kids NOT in a language immersion elementary school, I am very disappointed that DCPS has not been able to explain or highlight what might be attractive about McFarland for kids that are not in the dual language program.  I would love to be able to send my kids to McFarland if there is a high quality program being offered.  However, I will NOT do that if all of the focus, energy, resources are for the dual language program and the program for the non-dual language program is treated as a second class citizen.  If this is how it is going to be, then as much as I may want my kids to be able to walk to their middle school, they will be trekking to Deal or we will play the lottery for a charter.[/quote]

The opening for the non-dual-language program is three years away. If they get to the end of this year without a plan, be mad then. Until that point, it is on the community to ask (and demand) what we want for the school.  The usual DCUM pout and stomp is not what is needed here.  Tell them what you want (see email above).[/quote]
