[quote=Anonymous]We had to make a similar choice, YY vs. our neighborhood school, Whittier. We visited Whittier and loved it - the teachers were so attentive and caring, and being able to walk to school was very appealing. Plus, even at-risk students do well at Whittier, and the school seems to improve by leaps and bounds ever year. On the other hand, I'm a native Chinese speaker (my husband is white and doesn't speak a word of Chinese), and I would have loved for our kid to have that extra exposure at school. We ended up choosing Whittier and we're so glad we chose our neighborhood school. We have a great sense of community here now. But, one of my coworkers who also lives in our neighborhood (white, non-Chinese speaking) chose YY for his kids, and they are thriving and love it there. He showed me a drawing his 4 year old did with writing in Chinese that said, "When I grow up, I want to be a dolphin." Your kid will probably do fine in either school, especially in the lower grades, as long as they have attentive teachers, and you supplement at home.[/quote]
