[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is APS using this as a way to hurry along the attrition rate to remove the immersion program at the middle school age? [/quote] No- this proposal came 'out' of the immersion community. Go back in time to 2017 or so- it was along the time that they changed the way the admissions went for the immersion program- advocates formed a group that was supposed to be like the Montessori Action Committee- it was intended to advocate for immersion and strengthening the immersion program, and reducing the dropout rate. The parent community strongly advocated at that time to move the MS program to Kenmore, saying that the major reason people left immersion was distance to Gunston. The School Board was considering it- but the teachers objected, and the idea died. I think the committee died too- it kind of got sidelined by the moving Key wildfires. [/quote]
