PGCPS Language Immersion Programs

Does anyone have experience with the Immersion Programs? Is the program at Overlook better than PEW?

I have a good friend whose child is in the program at PEW and really, truly loves it. I have been to a few of the events there (Grandparents day, end of school parties) and they have been really nice.

Since both programs are just in the second year, I think it may be a bit early to tell which program is better. Unless you plan on moving, it doesn't matter - where you live will determine your placement.

Thanks. I heard that both programs are experiencing growing pains and that the administration at Overlook has really embraced the program.

I have an acquaintance that likes Overlook and an acquaintance that tried PEW and didn't like the peer group.

I know some parents who are considering removing their children from the program at Phyllis E. Williams. There is a culture of disorganization at the school and communication between the administration and parents is very poor.
