[quote=Anonymous]According to a write-up of yesterday's (Monday, April 18th) PCSB meeting:
[i]
The contrast could not have been greater to that of Latin American Montessori Bilingual PCS, whose [b]representatives explained to the obvious disbelief of the directors that the institution does not back fill empty spots after Pre-Kindergarten Four.  The Performance Management Framework Tier 1 school defended this policy on the grounds that children will not be successful in its program if they are admitted after this stage because of the challenging Montessori and language immersion program.[/b]  But the result of this practice appears to be that about half of the pupils that start at the school withdraw before graduating at the fifth grade.  [b]Based upon yesterday’s discussion, be prepared for a change in this area.[/b][/i]

It's one person's speculative interpretation, but the point is a good one.  If Yu Ying can manage to teach Mandarin to Kindergarteners, it's difficult to believe LAMB can't find a way to teach Spanish to children of the same age.
