[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Glad to hear they are overhauling things. Some people rave about concordia but my kid did the 4-week HS program a few years ago and did not have a great experience. Every language has a different 'village' so perhaps their language camp was an outlier (japanese)? The language instruction was ok but facilities/food was poor and my kid said many of the other students had some serious issues (mental health issues, family/identity challenges, etc). Lots of home-schooled kids and kids never away from home before, etc. The camps are also located in super remote areas of northern Minnestota - 4 hour drive north of minneapolis (closer to fargo, ND). This was during covid, so at the time, not many camp options. But if I did it again, would have them do a college program or an international host stay program. If my kid studied spanish, seems like there are likely many other options to consider. [/quote]

Yes I looked into it for Spanish and seems like a real hassle to get there.[/quote]

Did you find an alternative? DC really needs to work on their Spanish and on-line programs aren't a good option in terms of sticking with it and would like to find something enjoyable as well[/quote]
