The high school could be in a central location in the county and it can be built from the ground up. I don't think they stop building high schools in the county.
It is a privilege to attend a charter school. If you are not aware most charter schools require parents to provide transportation to and from school. It is typically not the schools responsibility.
I still don't understand how that does not make sense when county would like to expand the immersion program.

I think this will give our kids a great opportunity to be bi-lingual and immerse themselves in another culture. A high school immersion program is well needed for the county, the county can always create one big immersion school that houses french, spanish, and any other language immersion program. Each language attends classes with their language block.

So are you suggesting that students from as far apart as John Hanson and Robert Goddard get bussed across the county to attend the same school. What high school are you suggesting they use? Where do kids in those neighborhood end up getting bussed to? I don't think this makes sense.

This is all very exciting. To PP 22:05, I think any changes to middle school and high school is following the Secondary School Reform model they've begun implementing. I'm not sure if that includes an immersion program somewhere. There are a lot of IB programs in the works. I don't think there will ever be an immersion program high school because they don't have enough high schools to turn one over completely.

This is really exciting news. If the new school is creative arts, Cesar Chavez becomes a lottery school and adding TWO full immersion schools in Upper Marlboro and Temple Hills; that would be a lot of progress in the right way for PG county. Now if they can only improve Middle and High School options. One of my children attends RGFI which recently won a Blue Ribbon award; however we are very concerned when we think about the high school years. There should be an immersion program at the high school level somewhere in the county.

From the Gazette:
Hyattsville’s newest school could host a creative and performing arts program while another may be converted into a specialty language immersion program, according to Prince George’s County school officials.
Johndel Jones-Brown, director of boundaries and pupil accounting for the county school system, presented several proposals under consideration to a gathering of about 50 community members Tuesday at Nicholas Orem Middle School in Hyattsville.
