[quote=Anonymous]It’s both. Key is where immersion started in Arlington County and it’s one of the oldest dual language immersion schools in the country. This is not insignificant. Dual language immersion is cheaper than ESL for ELL’s and has better outcomes. Key is also the closest school to a metro station in Arlington County. To show just how little staff researched the impact a move would have on Key, they did not even factor in transportation for extended day, (none of those kids are on a bus), and I think Key has the largest or second largest extended day in the county. All of those kids will be on buses if a swap occurs, and if they choose to follow Key to another location. Also, Key gets NA kids to Gunston and Wakefield, if immersion shrinks (which it will in any other smaller building) all of those kids will go to neighborhood MS and HS.[/quote]
