[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most MCPS ES offer FLES-- foreign language in elementary school-- as a before or after school activity. Instructional quality seems to vary widely AFAICT. [/quote] Our ES offers FLES in Spanish and it's been great for DD! Yes, it's not the same as immersion, but we didn't get in, so we do the FLES. Supplement at home with videos and books from the library. DD is definitely NOT fluent, but has learned a decent amount, and I think the early exposure to a 2nd language is beneficial regardless of fluency. [/quote]
