[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here- Thanks for all the feedback! We are a Spanish speaking family and want a nurturing environment where Spanish is heavily spoken. Do you think we would get that experience there? Also- thoughts on giving up Stokes EE match for BM? [/quote] We’re a BMPV family and absolutely. It is about two-thirds Latino, and many Latino parents speak minimal English. No 50/50 immersion school, which is all in DC after K (BMPV is 90/10 through K), can force a kid who defaults to English to speak Spanish outside of class time. Stokes or BMPV or anywhere else. But it is a wonderful environment with a high performing cohort of kids, and we’re happy enough there that we’ve turned down Stokes and MV offers to stay. That said, if you’re closer to Stokes or highly prioritize the DCI preference, then I may still choose Stokes. But as an elementary school itself, BMPV is equal or better in the areas important to us.[/quote]
