On the part in bold: NO! If FCPS is not going to populate Lewis, then it needs to offer in-person classes for every class that is at neighboring schools, even if there is a teacher for just 1-2 students. Think that’s wasteful? Then change the boundaries to ensure Lewis is as populated as the nearby schools. If people don’t want Lewis kids in their schools, then they need to offer EVERY opportunity at Lewis because the kids who are at Lewis shouldn’t get screwed in the meantime.[/quote]

I am the PP you are answering - who thinks languages should be online.  I should have clarified.  I think every school should only offer 2 language options, and if you want something else you take it online. Not just Lewis/WSHS/Etc.  But level the playing field.  Have a class period during the day to complete the online class in school during school hours with a teacher/monitor.  But don't have students all of a sudden have an interest in a different language at another school and use that to switch.

That is ridiculous to only have the same 2 languages at every high school.  Languages shouldn’t be on line, they need in person instruction. This seems to be the most mind numbing, backwards thing to come out of the boundary review.  Go live on the planet from A Wrinkle in TIme where everything is exactly the same and all the people have to do the same thing at the same time if this is your life goal, but I really hope your don’t spread your ideology and make the rest of us follow it.  Yes, you have touched a nerve.  The diversity of language programs in FCPS is a strength and a reason people move here. [/quote]
