[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]+1...[b].The impression I'm getting, from the outside, is that being indifferent to chinese cultural norms/abc sensitivities, and fairly militant about it, is the norm for parents at this inbred charter.

So people are mainly interested in fleeing unacceptable IB schools, believing that bilingualism will make their kids smarter, and ultimately more marketable in a increasingly globalized labor force?

After wading through this thread, can't help but marvel that chinese parents are involved.  The arrangement sounds awkward as heck, no matter how good the kids' Mandarin might be.  YY, hire a savvy PR team cheap after the Dems or Republicans lose in Nov!

True (and I'm a YY parent who's very happy with the school as is - my child is a rising K, no complaints) except maybe the last paragraph about needing a savvy PR team.  Waitlist is long and growing longer every year...  probably will be like 2Rivers and Stokes where only siblings will get placement soon.[/quote]

On second thought, don't think anyone gives this much thought.  Certainly not enough to be militant about it.  Afterall, everyone there was lucky enough to get a place in the lottery ([b]if they didn't have sibling/employee/founder preference).[/b][/quote]

That is the current make-up of LAMB.  [/quote]
