[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For kids who have already taken several years of Chinese, are they just supposed to start over with a new language? My kids currently take Chinese at Deal, and I’m concerned it will be cut in the future, whether at Deal or Jackson-Reed. [b]What do these schools expect kids on the Mandarin language track to do when their language gets cut? [/quote][/b] I bet they'll cut Mandarin at Walls, too. *Avoid DCPS, go with YuYing if you can lottery in. Go with DCI later on. *Leave after 4th for BASIS and start Mandarin there in 8th grade. *Leave for Arlington or Fairfax, where kids can start Mandarin in 6th grade. *Leave for MoCo where kids can't start Mandarin immersion in K. DCPS doesn't give a hoot what your kid does if Mandarin gets cut. [/quote] Above is a pretty good summary and says it all for Mandarin. [/quote]
