[quote=Anonymous]At the school information session, the principal encouraged us to sign our children up for summer school so they have a leg up when they start in the fall. I should have asked at the time but I wasn't sure we were going to pick Claremont then...does anyone have experience with summer school for Spanish immersion? Is it a positive introduction where the kids get excited about it? I'm concerned that it sounds like a rigid program and it may turn my child off on it...and if they are introducing the new kindergarteners properly in the fall, it shouldn't be necessary. Summer school is every day for a month, so it pretty much screws up childcare plans for summer, you have to be there in person to apply, the deadline to apply is in two weeks, and there are "no excused absences" (in the summer??). So I'm not thrilled with the idea unless it's going to be fun and positive and get her excited about starting school. Any thoughts?[/quote]
