[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why mess with something that is working?

-Not a lamb parent / shut out at pk3 and pk4[/quote]

To increase the number of quality seats available.  It would still work fine just like it does at yu ying.

If the culture really cannot survive a handful of new kindergarteners, what does that say about the school?[/quote]

It only works "fine" at Yu Ying because standards for Chinese aren't very high at the school. If you're a native Mandarin speaker, you're not impressed with how well YY kids understand or speak Chinese, unless they have an adult in the home who consistently speaks Chinese to them, and requires them to answer in Chinese. The truth is that the great majority of YY kids speak Chinese haltingly, even if they've been in the program for four, five or six years. They really having to think before they can get a sentence out in Mandarin, slowly.

LAMB is unique among DC charter immersion programs because they're aiming higher. Go, LAMB, stick to your guns if you can.
