[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are there any immersion schools that will take a newbie in 2nd grade? Our immersion charter doesn't accept new kids after prek4. [/quote] I'm pretty sure Mundo Verde takes kids at any grade. I previously had a DC there in first grade, who had a classmate transfer in. He described that student really struggling - though I have no insight into how prepared or not the student was before school started.[/quote] My immersion elementary school kid comes home with work written entirely in Spanish. I don't know how someone who doesn't speak could keep up. [/quote] If OP is crazy enough to even consider this for her 2nd grader which is a very bad move, I would not list MV where expectations are high in spanish. Yes they take a few kids in upper grades but these kids are from DCPS bilingual schools and even they come in behind.[/quote]
