[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like the immersion lotteries could at least be after the kindergarten signups in the spring and also expanded.  This is an area where MCPS could really change things without having to change the program itself..like the competitive magnets.[/quote]

I absolutely think that the bare minimum MCPS should do is accept magnet applications through kindergarten registration week, and eliminate the sibling link.  That would create a more level playing ground and help to eliminate the "white flight" factor in immersion applications.  With that said, Jawando's an ass if he passed up Rolling Terrace because RCF was the ONLY school he wanted.  Either immersion is important to him, or it isn't.  It it's important to him and his family, he should be able to handle not having Westland and BCC feeder rights, and being in a school that is majority minority. [/quote]

Well I wonder what was the reasoning behind applying to Rolling Terrace at all if it wasn't acceptable.  It is true that RCF is more desirable simply due to the fact that is full immersion rather than partial so its hard to parse out whether its popularity is because of the format or desirability of the cluster.[/quote]
