[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally believe that elementary school is the best time to offer language immersion. I live in one of the best elementary school zones, but I have my kid on the waitlist for both immersion schools. I would love it if the neighborhood schools were equally good and immersion was for those who truly desire second language fluency for their kids.[/quote] And if you live within a great elementary and middle school pyramid, I would never recommend going to a specialty program unless you child is really interested in it. Transportation will add an extra hour or two onto your kids day and for the K-8 schools, the school day is already longer. The stress involved in dealing with the bus can be terrible. [/quote] Which is why I want to see a breakdown of transport costs for specialty programs! It's ridiculous kids attending their boundary school can't get transport but we can transport kids across the county so they can go to a publicly funded private for essentially. .. white kids based on the stars. And as far as keeping them in the county call their bluff. Most people refinanced and have low interest rates and interest rates are too high for them to buy with the house prices in the surrounding counties are too high so play them like Texas hold'em and start giving resources to all elementary schools[/quote]
