[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's different about the MacFarland that will open in 2017 as a neighborhood option and the MacFarland that closed in 2013 (?) due to underenrollment? Seems like there are even more charter schools now drawing students away from MacFarland.[/quote] It's going to have a dual language track -- that didn't exist before. They are starting the school with that -- 62 6th graders admitted for that next fall, before the rest of the school opens. [/quote] So if MacFarland can attract roughly 65 students in 6th, 7th, and 8th to a dual language program, that's a little less than 200 dual language students. How many additional students do people expect to come from the neighborhood feeders? The school's capacity is 610, IIRC. Surely 400 more won't come from the neighborhood feeders, will they?[/quote]
