Also for languages: We’ve been very impressed with the Chinese language classes and our child just tested into a level 4 Chinese for next year[/quote]

Deal 100%. It’s a better, more stable school. DCI always has vacancies and lots of teacher and admin  turnover. [/quote]

The reality is that many of the most advanced DCI Chinese students, who came up through YuYing, can barely hold down a normal conversation. That's what happens when kids learn Chinese without native speakers in their cohorts or full-fledged immersion experiences (vs. merely learning form teachers during the school year). We know this because we're native speakers who've had a lot of contact with YuYing and DCI Chinese families over the years. Like it or not, v. impressive is relative.[/quote]

The OP clearly asked about Spanish. [/quote]

Oh look! It's the infamous Chinese language troll whose kid didn't go to YY OR DCI, and who lives in Maryland!!!! [/quote]
