[quote=Anonymous]Once you are in MCPS you get phone calls in English and Spanish and mailings in the English (and other languages if you requested to receive their mailings in another language) telling you about information meetings for all the choice programs and reminding you about application deadlines. In the DCC and NEC, the children get visits from the high school choice programs so they can learn about these. If parents don't read the mailings, don't listen to the phone calls/voice messages from the school system, don't attend information meetings or if they can't go to the meetings, don't look at the MCPS website I am unsympathetic. The language immersion programs are a little different because you have to apply before you are actually in the school system. I think I heard about them from other parents. It would be more challenging for MCPS to advertise these to prospective students unless they required families to register their children for kindergarten earlier than they do now and then give them information about the language immersion programs. What exactly does Will Jawando expect them to do? Send a blanket mailing to every household in MCPS in multiple languages? I am so happy he did not win the election![/quote]
