[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The head of school's inability to speak Chinese and connect with the Chinese community has made DL so much more difficult than it would have been otherwise.[/quote]

I am so surprised the head of a bilingual education school does not speak both languages.[/quote] You must be brand new YY threads,PP. The Mandarin is really just to scare poor minority kids away. It works great, all most of the parents really care about. The like the head, don’t give a hoot that her Mandarin is atrocious, or that nothing comes home to families in Chinese. That’s been true all along and some bilingual families have left over the issue. Not every Chinese speaking family that has tried YY could cope with 100% English communication. [/quote]

MoCo immersion schools do not have dual language principals. YY has a hard enough time getting teachers. The point of these programs is to immerse native english speakers in a foreign language. The vast majority of YY parents are happy for what it is.[/quote]
