[quote=Anonymous][quote]No need to brag. Obvi the PP was referring to other immersion charters. No matter how you slice it, YY scores are very impressive. Why do so many wish failure for this school?

I am a new poster and I too wish for YY (and dozens of other charter schools) to thrive.

This said ..... I believe I speak for a lot of people IRL and on DCUM when I say that I am sick of repeatedly hearing from [u]-some-[/u] (not all) YY parents that YY is

- the very best public school in the entire city.

- a better education than is offered in[i] any private school in all of Washington DC[/i], and

- the obvious 1st choice for [u]any [/u]educated professional parent who reads the NYT daily, because don't you know?   Learning Mandarin means you'll do better in life than if you don't, given that (blah blah blah blah China blah blah)

I hear variations on this in DCUM all the time.  And I absolutely get this line from an real-life acquaintance of mine whose child has been attending YY for a few years (who, I think it's relevant, lives IB for a top DCPS and could swing private).  No, hon, we all just have different priorities.
