The issue is that this is a straw man argument if there aren't any kids from Damascus at RCF ES, due to the fact that Chevy Chase is a very long way from Damascus. In fact all 3 Spanish immersion elementary schools are a very long way from Damascus.[/quote]

You have no idea what a straw man is....  Any kid in montgomery count living anywhere can apply to Immersion programs.  Buses run everywhere in the county to pick them up and drop them off.  Schedules are readily available.  If no kids in the area attend schedules adjust accordingly.   I kknow first hand many people who live in Rockville, Boyd's, clarksburg and Gaithersburg who attend the programs.  [/quote]

Yes, that's why I said IF.

And while any kid in Montgomery County can apply to an immersion programs, surely parents are more likely to send their children to an immersion program if the school isn't clear across the county, buses notwithstanding. But that is a different issue.[/quote]

No it's that you fundamentally don't know what a straw man is...  If a kid does or does not live in Damascus it would not be a straw man as its a situation that can and is actually occurring under the current system.  [/quote]
