[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only con is that you can’t get in. I’m not sure why I was convinced it would happen for our family. I speak Spanish and was excited to have my someone to speak to. Maybe my 3rd kid can get in in the future. The worst part is that all the families I know that got in weren’t even excited and most dropped out. [/quote]

The Japanese and Korean programs tend to have no wait list or a short wait list that most everyone makes it off of. I know people target the Spanish programs because Spanish is commonly used but we loved the JIP at Fox Mill. It was our base school so we didn’t have to worry about transportation. One of the reasons that we liked it was because the language was challenging and we knew it would require our child to apply themselves. If they could wrap their heads around Japanese then they would be in good shape to learn the romance languages latter if they wanted to.

But I know it is not the language so many people want. People are more willing to look at the Romance languages. [/quote]
