[quote=Anonymous]More misinformation. The PA DID target marketing to those places listed, and did so in Mandarin (not Cantonese). However, that is the job of the school and not the parents. District charter law DOES prevent preferential admissions criteria. Furthermore, it needs to be clearly stated in the charter formation documents that admission will be based on a lottery if more than enough applicants apply. The charter board will not approve anything else and it would be grounds to have a charter pulled if a school were to attempt something like that. The students are assessed and placed in Mandarin ability groups regularly. The SOPA, CIRCLE and running records place the children by ability to their correct level. I'm curious what leads you to believe that your child is not placed appropriately? Do you mean to imply that you would wish for your child to be in a more native-speaker grouping? Or are you troubled that there are non-native speakers in the highest groups?[/quote]
