[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Personally, I'm in favor of making Claremont a neighborhood school. Now you'll ask me, "Where does the immersion program go?" The answer to that is, "I don't know." I rather agree with above posters who are critical of the need for option schools @ the ES level. [/quote] +1. Claremont is right where we need seats. [/quote] Most of the students at Claremont are from the immediately surrounding school zones, so moving it only creates seats if the same population follows the program long term. On one hand, we know option programs disproportionately pull from geographically close areas so that would imply few new seats created by a move. On the other hand, Claremont is definitely used as an escape valve by the UMC of S Arlington as evidenced by it having a much lower FARMS rate than the major feeder schools. If people are using it to avoid their zoned school they are more likely to follow to a new location. [/quote]
