[quote=Anonymous]We know four families at our DCPS who mostly speak Chinese at home with ES age kids. We come together to organize Chinese New Year celebrations at the school. The kids' Chinese sounds terrific to me (though they use a lot of slang), the PP who spent a decade working in China. We've asked, and none of these families has ever applied to YY. The parents say they're not interested in becoming token bilingual families there, and don't like how they've never been able to find a senior admin who speaks good Chinese or is ethnic. You can claim that the tiny, and dwindling size of the Chinese bilingual community (it's actually growing steadily) is all that keeps the numbers down. It's obviously not.[/quote]
