[quote=Anonymous]+1. Haven't posted before but have been mulling over what promotes the hostility toward the Chinese speakers mentioned. Must be mainly their phenomenal success as an immigrant group. You don't see a lot of Latino immigrants, some of whom have kids at the Sp immersion schools, leapfrogging over other low-SES Americans economically after just a generation in the US. But it's not uncommon to meet Chinese in this city, and other big cities, who run take-out places and laundromats yet send their kids to top colleges. I just asked the couple managing the downtown dry cleaner I go to if they're planning to try to get their toddler twins into YY. They said, no, we've heard it's not a school for Chinese families. We're moving to Rockville for kindergarten. [/quote]
