[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see it that way.  I'm not involved in Yu Ying but I think I can understand the sentiment the OP was driving at - I think the point the OP was probably trying to make was that they hope/wish that applicants to specialized schools like Yu Ying actually have a deep, genuine and serious interest in supporting that specialization as they do.  Some of things the OP suggested, like play groups don't cost money.

That probably isn't just a YY thing, it no doubt cuts across to many other schools as well, as many specialized charters sometimes get kids and families showing up, who didn't fully understand or subscribe to what the school is about. [/quote]

I would guess all parents at specialized schools would hope for this.  But hoping for this is different from hoping for parents that would also support other specials and "private sports", which absolutely costs real money and time.  Probably everyone can get on board with "it would be nice if the only people applying were doing so because they understand the mission/specialized nature of the school and they want it and will support it".  But the private sports PP said more than that and it sounded like they are indeed looking for a private school environment and families in a publicly funded school, even if they didn't think they sounded that way.[/quote]
