stay open. The list of school closures has not yet been released, and the uncertainty is causing a lot of worry. Parents told me they feel there has been talk of getting rid of language immersion schools in the past, and they feel that it would be a huge mistake. I am concerned that it could be on the chopping block. Adriana Casas, Gorski's son, attends John Stanford International, a dual language school. My husband is of Japanese heritage and I am Mexican, so this school offers us Spanish and Japanese. She's worried her son's school and McDonald international might be on the closure list as a teacher herself at a Spanish cooperative preschool. She says demand for the DLI schools is already so high the district is losing students to private schools every single year, we have parents who are heartbroken because their child did not get into a immersion school. We are losing students each year, to us, that should be coming to SBS. At Tuesday's virtual meeting, SPS leaders answered written questions only when asked how DLI schools would be impacted. No promises were made to keep schools open, but the superintendent said they plan to maintain programing. We're actually talking about how do we store them up, and so our DLI programing and dual language programing should sustain as we go forward. So I just wanted to give people some reassurance on that. However, school officials said in general, even if some schools stay open, students could still be moved. It is very possible that students would be moving from their current school, even if it's not a school that is closing. Tuesday's virtual meeting comes on the heels of an in-person meeting last week, during which the crowd was frustrated they weren't allowed to comment. We will continuously have engagement sessions throughout. Thank you. Adriana says if dual language immersion schools close, SPS will miss the moment. I mean, we are a world city. Seattle is a world city and we need to prepare our students that way. SPS says it's consolidated schools would be called well-resourced schools and would include high quality educators and modern classroom resources and technology inclusive curriculum and foster a supportive environment at a public hearing is scheduled for June 10th. SPSS said that the closures will be distributed evenly across the district, and the superintendent will be presenting recommendations to
