[quote=Anonymous]I really don't get why folks think that Spanish speaking immigrants really want their kids in immersion school. DH is Hispanic, his mom's first language was Spanish. She refused to teach her kids Spanish. Same with pretty much all of his family. They want to distance themselves from Spanish. That is the general attitude of many Hispanics I know and is bore out by studies. http://theconversation.com/spanish-use-is-steady-or-dropping-in-us-despite-high-latino-immigration-85357 I am not speaking to other reasons for moving the school, but moving the school to an area with more Hispanics doesn't necessarily mean more Hispanics will automatically attend (assuming it remains a choice school).
