[quote=Anonymous]I have a kid who completed a dual-language elementary school last year. For 3rd grade entry, I would think about personality and ability. If you have a kid with a facility for languages who either loves a challenge or is unphased by being the only kid who doesn't know stuff, it could work. For a shy, sensitive, average kid (this is my child) I think it will be way more pain than it is worth. Overall I think dual language is great for bilingual kids (and there are many in my community) and good for monolingual kids who need an extra challenge. It was not good for my child who did not fall into either of those groups.[/quote]
