[quote=Anonymous]YY parent here. I know several native speaker families/students and have not heard from any that they feel unwelcome - on the contrary, they are involved and happy from the school. I hear a lot of gripes from individuals who don't like the system (no preference for native speakers, no assessment tests for getting in at the early grades). Just like with everything, people gripe about the school if they don't like a particular policy. I am frankly appalled by some of the posts that were either racist or borderline. What I also don't understand is that since the lottery waitlist operates on a list based on time of application, any family that is on the ball and applies online or in person at the time applications are accepted basically will get in. This might not be the case this year or in the next few as more and more siblings will get preference as the school gets larger but it has been in the past. That is, any family who is really interested in the school and very focused on getting in can get in by being strategic about the application process. [/quote]
