D21 some notes on Russian Program at POE:
Due to the changing guidelines in exiting criteria (which was lowered this year) given by the State of Illinois, the program is already projected to shrink next year. That would mean that many children who would meet that criteria would be going to their home schools.
Those things do come from the state, but our district is in a financial crisis, just like everyone at this time. Due to this fact they are also looking how to save, and the first things that go usually programs that are not backed up by vocal parents 
-If you have an incoming KG student in our district, and would like to register
him/her, please do it as soon as possible. It will help to keep the projection
number more realistic for classes configurations.
-If you are a parent at Poe school, please try to come to at least 1 PTO meeting
at Poe, and take few of your fellow parents with you. PTO does do a lot for all
the kids and school in general. But russian parents get a very bad reputation for not
taking any part in it.

We don' t have Korean program. Only Spanish (bilingual i think), and transitional general ESL and Russian ESL.
Of course, they are not going ot cut Spanish ESL...V distrikte kucha administracii s etogo kormyatsya... Odna ESL lady chego stoit - she makes over 100K while there had been NO improvment in test scores in district 21 Bil Spanish students over X years...

But Russian and General ESL are easy cuts...
Forgot, there is Polish ESL at Frost and I bet that would NOT get cut either. Polish kids do get mainstreamed as well but stay at Frost until middle school.

still 4 millions short...
means mainstream classrooms will be packed to maximum...
Let take POE- 3rd grade - 1 russian esl (around 18 kids), 1 special ed(?) or some other type SMALL classroom, 2 mainstream classes that are pretty close to capacity.
Under current budget constraints, main goal for schools in the district - NOT to add new teachers. Now, most russian ESL parents, don't want their kids mainstreamed but doing nothing about it... On another hand, district mainstreams according to standards...
My prediction, come 4th grade - number of kids that have to be in mainstream classroom will exceed number of spaces available in mainstream classes at POE so some kids will be sent to homeschools...

also, if lower standards allow to admi less kids into K ESL and mainstream more kids out of 1st grade - those two grades can be combined and one teacher can be cut. Obviously, any other two ESL grades could be combined if lower standards push for more kids to be mainstreamed or not even enrolled into ESL starting at K. The beauty of transitional program - administration of the district can manipulate numbers any way they want it while disregarding parents and kids.
