[quote=Anonymous]During the open house the principles said that First Grade is the latest grade that they would recommend an English dominant child starting at Oyster. In the course of the tour, however, they introduced us to a Third Grader who had started Oyster that year and caught up. My child began kindergarten at Oyster and will be starting Second Grade in Fall. Her Spanish is minimal and that is true for many of her classmates. I doubt that they are much ahead of your kids in spoken ability, though probably ahead in comprehension. Oyster tells parents it takes five years. I think that you should mainly decide how important bilingualism is for you. I think it's a wonderful place and the second poster is more critical than I would be. Thet ask for a lot of volunteers but you can decide which actvitiies are worthwhile. [/quote]
