[quote=Anonymous]YY parent here. 
I don't feel like a refugee who is too polite to ask for something better. I'm pretty happy with what I see: dedicated staff, amazing principal, very diverse student body. We don't speak English at home. Chinese is my DC third language. And we are not the only one in this position: there are French, Spanish, German, Russian speakers.

Are we there because we are too dumb to see that YY is a water-down version of the entire, full immersion for real Chinese (mandarin speaking only I guess..)? Are we there because we're so desperate for our kids to learn Chinese, the language of the future??

Not sure for all, but for us? NOOOOOOOOO-- We're there because our IB sucks, and that Chinese sounds better than Spanish, specially that (in your famous 2 ways model) your kids are not going to learn the "real" spanish (Spain, Argentina) but probably some dialect from San Salvador...

Chinese for White and Black people? Great!!!! That's the way we like it..
