[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The assignments praising "President" Mao that the admins couldn't read could be construed as a wake-up call. The teacher's still on board, but now that she's been busted by a mom who actually reads characters, maybe she'll tone down her paens to Communism.

I see YY's embarrassing leadership situation, and dearth of bilingual students (although DC supports a small bilingual Chinese immigrant community) as a wake-up call.  The city obviously isn't nearly as serious about improving school quality as it should be.

To my knowledge, in the burbs and other cities, school systems don't hire admins who can't read or speak immersion languages being taught. They scour North America to find them.  That's how the Quebecois Maury principal came to this area - Fairfax recruited her from Canada to head up a new French immersion program, although she had no prior US school admin experience. It's no secret that she wouldn't head up [b]Stokes because the one-way immersion set-up there doesn't do it for her[/b].  This country has to compete economically on a global stage.

Who are you?  Stokes has plenty of of French speaking kids.  However, after reading your many posts, they are most likely not the French speakers you would like.  They are Black, mostly from Western and Central African countries.  [/quote]
