[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you fix the problem of non-citizens that don’t speak English failing in English speaking schools? Send rich kids to the same school. The ESOL kids will learn by osmosis from the rich! That’s how it works right?[/quote] That's how it works in Bethesda ES. And Farmland ES, too.[/quote] Are we talking about sending a group of wealthy students to poor performing districts or sending a group of poor students to wealthy districts? The difference is, one school had no additional resources and is straining under all the ESOL needs while the other has plenty of resources available. Just sending some wealthy students to a poor school won’t do anything for that school but those students will certainly outperform the current students and take all the honors and AP slots which is detrimental to the currently zoned students. Again, look at that manassas high school link.[/quote]
