[quote=Anonymous]My child is at CGES, but not in CI.

How long is your expected bus ride? I know some kids who are on the bus an hour EACH way.

Can you support Chinese at home?  (Half of the day IS in Chinese. If my child were learning math in Chinese, I would not be able to discern if the trouble he is having is due to a language/comprehension issue or a math issue.)

It's my observation that the kids don't really intermingle with others outside of CI that much at recess. When my child was in K and 1st, the children mainly played with their own classmates at recess. Now in 2nd grade, they seem to expand their recess circle more, but still do have a "core" group based from their own classroom.

CI is slated to move to RM ES #5 when that school is built (assuming it really happens). So if your goal is to go to that particular school because you like the facility or location, you may not be there forever. But if your goal is for the program, you'll always be in the program.

Kids begin dropping out at 4th grade more rapidly than the earlier grades.
