[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes to 9:52, YY does pluck like that. So I was surprised to hear op's recap of conversations with admin. I believe her but it YY's acts seem contradictory [/quote] Ooh, I'm not surprised. OP is hardly the only ethnic parent who felt unwelcome after visiting. The founders and PA parents value DIVERSITY far more highly than bilingual inputs, always have, always will. Other YY threads have delved into the issue of YY not hiring an ethnic Chinese administrator willing and able to run effective outreach to the mostly Cantonese-speaking local Chinese community. To answer OP's Q, I don't get the feeling that the other language immersinon schools have strained relationships with their language-speaking communities. Not at all. They work hard to draw in bilingual families. Tyler is just getting on board. [/quote]
