[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've been taking our children to a weekend heritage language program in MoCo for years. We talk to MoCo public school parents all the time. None are required to sign their children up for years worth of Spanish classes in return for using their in-boundary schools, which often happens in DC. None turn to charter schools, where kids are forced to study certain languages to progress to the next grade, to escape failing by-right middle schools. DCPC and DCPC shoot for mediocrity where language study goes, even at BASIS and DCI. The mediocrity is under-girded by lack of flexibility on curricular choices, unrealistic expectations of students, and poor planning. Things will change, slowly and over a long period of time. [/quote] I am far more interested in math and science than I am in language studies. You have different priorities. Which is why it is a big country filled with options, public and private. Live and let live. [/quote]
