[quote=Anonymous]More exaggeration with no evidence.  Intense claims with no back-up at all... "alienating the entire bilingual Chinese population".... Where is your proof for that other than some disgruntled comments on this anonymous board... This 2 percent that we keep hearing? What is the source for that?  Just like with BASIS I don't understand the depth of ill will towards these two schools. Neither is perfect but they are or will be great additions to the educational landscape of DC. No school is perfect of course. I like the suggestion of others on different threads about these haters who write as if starting and running a school is so easy that they should suggest starting their own charter.  Finally, if I were a recently immigrated Chinese speaking family, I don't think I would consider YY. I would rather have my kids in a full ENglish immersive environment and maintain the Chinese at home and through family/social/heritage language school interactions.  Same if I spoke Spanish.  Many relatives and friends I know who came to the us as young immigrants learned English quickly but maintained their fluency in their native tongues.[/quote]
