[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those students may be out of the lottery for middle school anyway. I know many families at the DCI feeders who have no plans to go to DCI or any other DC public school. They are in it for elementary school and thrilled for the language immersion - [b]and frankly like the low/lower percentage of FARMS at some of these schools[/b]- and then they are gone from the DC public school scene. Of course, time will tell all.[/quote] I think you are assuming a lot. We are one of *those* families who chose a DCI feeder for the language immersion for elementary school only. Could not care less about the low/lower FARMs and in fact consider it a bonus that the school is head and shoulders above any private school in diversity, socio-economic and racial. In fact, my guess is that the immersion schools attract a lot of socially progressive liberals and conservatives (we are) who can afford private school but choose otherwise for precisely this reason.[/quote]
