There’s no German Immersion at WSHS. Your special program ended. Back to base school. You should have established residency in the Orange Hunt boundary back in 2018 if you cared so much about the high school.

Bless your heart.

We own a home in WSHS boundary that was going to be rezoned out because of all these language transfers in. Of course I’m salty.

German Immersion in an elementary level program. There is no German Immersion at the middle school and high school level and no room in the neighborhood schools for extra students.

Where other schools were concerned, FCPS rezoned kids to get schools down to 105% capacity. To get WSHS down to 105% capacity, based on 2025-26 enrollment, they should be moving 218 kids out of WSHS. But, there are only 51 transfers into WSHS this year.

So if they'd treated WSHS fairly, like they treated some other schools, they still would have needed to move 167 kids out of WSHS even if all the language transfers were eliminated.

Start with sending all the language transfers to Robinson or back to their base school.

Then do a residency check after class of 2026 graduates.

So much gatekeeping. Maybe WSHS should just be an ICE training academy.

The school is over crowded, it is reasonable to not allow students to pupil place there for that reason. It isn’t gate keeping, it is preventing the school from being more crowded. When the County starts to talk about moving kids out of the school, it is reasonable to first stop the transfers in and make sure that the kids who are there are supposed to be there.

Not a WSHS parent but I get why they would be miffed.

FCPS needs to place full AP at all the of the HSs, name one HS per pyramid as an IB school that kids can apply to attend. Kids applying for IB agree to take the full diploma. This would stop the largest source of pupil placements.

Closing the language loop hole is a start to keeping kids at their base schools. It will help some of the struggling schools since the higher performing students who were transferring for a specific language cannot do that any more. It is hard for schools like Lewis and Herndon and Mt. Vernon who bleed hundreds of students a year to improve.

I feel badly for the language immersion kids because they have been told for years that they can pupil place for the language and now that is gone. I also know that a good number of kids in language immersion are there as a way out of poorly performing ES. It will be interesting to see how this change impacts LI, if the number of participating families declines because parents know kids can’t stay together.

Immersion 100% continues in 8th grade, there is a language immersion specific class at the MS that the ESLI program feeds into. I know this is the case for Japanese and Korean. Maybe it is different for Spanish, French, and German and the kids move into the regular language class but at least Japanese and Korean Immersion continues in MS and then into HS as the kids need two additional years of language if they taake language all 4 years.

It's not entirely clear to me if the expectation from colleges is that the kids have a total of 4 years of a WL or have a WL all 4 years of HS (which could have some kids taking 6 years of the language).

I think that the language requirements are less concerning then the math requirements. You need 4 years of Math in HS, regardless of taking HS math in MS. Foreign language is less worried about it all being in HS, at least that is my impression. If you have 4 years of a language and you stop to take electives that are of interest to you. Plenty of colleges don't require 4 years of language, that is a less set in stone requirement then math.

There is no 6 years of the language available. It would be 2 years of a new language if they want 4 years of high school language, which means they should not be allowed language transfers in 11th or 12th grade.

All those immersion kids should be sent back to their neighborhood schools since the transfer need ends in 10th grade.

I believe AP language is a 5th year of the language. And most of the schools have a DE class for the immersion language served at the school. Is there a reason you want to punish kids who have taken more language then most?

There are no immersion high schools in FCPS

You are correct, except that I have heard teachers refer to the HS that the ES LI programs feed into immersion HS, meaning that they have programs for the kids who took Immersion in ES and MS. There are programs in place to support those kids as they finish the traditional language path at most HS. I know kids who took DE Japanese classes after they finished the regular courses. Some kids will not take the DE language class and will take different electives instead.

If immersion students take the immersion language in 7th and 8th grade for high school credit, then there are only 2 years left in the language sequence. They will be finished with their 4 year language sequence by 10th grade, and should be sent back to their base schools for 11th and 12th grade.

Any language transfers for immersion students should only be allowed for 9th and 10th grade.

I have no dog in this fight, but what is the point of offering immersion when there is no path for the kids to continue that language through high school? When the kids enrolled in immersion, the parents were told that there is a path for them. Changing that mid-stream is no different from rezoning you from your precious WSHS.

There is a pathway to continue, Robinson Secondary School, not WSHS and Irving.

Keep the old transfer policy, but actually enforce it.
