[quote=Anonymous]We'd certainly go with Spanish if we didn't speak Chinese at home. We're one of the many American Born Chinese families in the city avoiding Yu Ying. We're hardly alone in thinking it ridiculous for DC charter to support an immersion school without a Chinese community behind it, due to the lack of a lottery for bilingual kids, the norm in some other US cities with Chinese-immersion schools (NYC, San Fran). The atmosphere at YY is far too strange and politically correct for the likes of us. If our kid is going to be one of the only bilingual (Chinese-English) kids in a particular school, we'd rather avoid the schlep to Brookland - our IB school is great. [/quote]
