[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask for the data form these immersion experiments. Does it make a difference for native English speakers? Or [b]is it just a fancy excuse to bus kids in to communities with high populations of native Spanish soeajers to increase the school’s report card?[/b] Everyone I know who started in one has left once they saw what was behind the curtain[/quote]

This is a weird critique, since most of the kids at WTPES and BMES are coming from elsewhere in the down-county, and RCFES is a BCC feeder.

Yes, RCF feeds into BCC which is why the immersion program is primarily made up of families trying to escape the DCC schools.[/quote]

Actually, kids at RCF for immersion that are not in-bounds for BCC no longer feed to BCC (as of next year, I believe); they can go to Westland, then the path ends.  And SSIMS is no longer an option for RCF kids either.  So, I guess no one will enter the lottery anymore from the east side of the county because they only wanted the BCC feeder pattern, and not the language education.  Oh, wait....[/quote]
