[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is going to be in DCI French track for 6th grade this year.  We don't know any one else going or anyone who has gone.  We did a tour and have talked to the administration, but any advice, etc that people who have DCI experience would share?[/quote]

Welcome to DCI! 🐉  We have two kids there and we're happy with their experiences at the school and I hope you will be as well.

They've both made lots of friends outside their original feeder cohort and kids quickly become "DCI students" as opposed to language-based feeder alumni groups, so don't fret about the language track.

I do suggest taking a look at all the after-school activities (a.k.a. ACE) for middle school (teams, clubs, etc.) it's a great place to make more friends outside the regular school day.[/quote]

Agree that one of the great benefits of DCI is all the extracurricular and sports offerings at the school.  Kids meet lots of other kids outside of their classes and make new friends.

Biggest benefit of all though is not having to drive freakin everywhere after school for clubs and sports.  Huge lifestyle game changer for kids and parents.
