[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was a non RCF parent who posted here that he/she could tell the deck was stacked against the Immersion families when he/she saw the testimony.  How could a school recommend that their own school be split?  That did not come from an immersion family so all the comments asking why immersion families feel the deck is stacked against them are misdirected.  That being said, Immersion families are being thrown under the bus when the PTA supports a recommendation that splits the school and while you throw out your statistics of 55 % you don't mention that only 1/3 of immersion families were included in that vote.  My child's vote came back in his yellow folder and he said he forgot to turn it in so our vote never made it in for the vote tally.  I wonder how many other votes if 2/3 of the families that were not included actually had their votes counted - it would have resulted in a different outcome.  It's so sad to be part of a school that actually votes against itself.  [/quote]

I think the school is crazy to include Immersion in the discussion at all. My child was in French Immersion at Sligo Creek ES five or six years ago during their boundary study and the immersion program wasn't considered in the boundary study. I got that because it was a BOUNDARY discussion about neighborhood lines, and has nothing at all to do with special or choice programs. What's sad is that you think your wishes should matter more than that of the people who live within the cluster boundaries. Why did MCPS let immersion be considered in this boundary study? [/quote]
