[quote=Anonymous]Frankly, I don't really care. I would love to get an immersion seat this year for my PK4 kid, but I'm not going to wring my hands too much about the percentage of native speakers in any language. It's impossible to get it just right; if it's "too" Latino, then some people consider the school to be too ghetto, or too rough. Not enough, and people feel like it's not authentic. Frankly, I'm not counting on an elementary immersion program to make my kid fluent. We will embrace whatever school we end up at, and will supplement with camps, tutoring, and travel if possible. If we can get some decent native speakers to expose my young child to correct pronunciation and the mechanics of other language(s) at a young age, I will consider it to be a huge success.[/quote]
