[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's get real. You have families trying to get into RCF immersion just to go to Westland MS. Driving their kid or their kid taking two buses to go to a West county predominantly white MS (Westland) is not a big deal for families trying to escape their "diverse" home middle school. [/quote] I'm sure they exist but I haven't met these people. I live in a "diverse" neighborhood and we know lots of people who have lotteried for immersion (some get it, some don't). Missing out on the neighborhood school and the sense of the community that goes with it has been seen as a "con" by everyone I've talked to -- although of course the foreign language aspect is a strong plus. Given our location, people I know are disappointed by the Westland articulation and loss of SSIMS as a choice.[/quote] Why not simply go back to the middle school your kid is zoned based on where you live? Middle school world language classes start in 6th grade. From speaking to immersion families, kids start off with Spanish 1 in 6th. So just go back to your neighborhood MS when finished with 5th grade at a Spanish immersion school.[/quote] This such a stupid comment. It’s almost laughable, if it weren’t so dumb. No way you have a kid in immersion or you’ve even talked to immersion families. Why don’t you just sit this one out. [/quote]
