[quote=Anonymous]Where are you from OP?  In DC, language immersion is the lodestar for parents who want advanced academics, knowing that G&T is out of fashion in the public schools.  The immersion schools are all very different.  In alphabetical order:

DC Bilingual: Spanish Immersion, offered through Centronia - Hispanic community center

LAMB (Latin American Montessori Bilingual): Spanish Immersion, Montessori

Mundo Verde: Spanish Immersion, "Green School" - smaller classes, enviro focus

Stokes: Spanish Immersion and French Immersion

Yu Ying: Mandarin Immersion, International Baccalaureate Program

All 5 of these schools will feed into a common MS/HS called DCI (DC International) which will open next year in a beautiful campus at the old Walter Reed.  It will offer all 3 languages (so far): Spanish, Chinese, French, in a program for the prestigious IB Diploma.

There is a 6th language immersion school that just opened:  Sela, which offers Hebrew Immersion.  Like Mundo Verde, it has received a lot of start-up assistance from Yu Ying.  Some people hope that it will join the DCI consortium, which Yu Ying is responsible for pulling together.
