[quote=Anonymous]We've had one kid at Yu Ying for a couple of years and will have another join in the fall. YY is awesome for language instruction (as immersion programs generally are) and aftercare (although REEF is pretty expensive). It's fine-to-good for everything else. Immersion is important to us and we can support Mandarin at home. If all schools in the city were free and our kids could "get in" anywhere, they'd be at Yu Ying. But that's because of the Mandarin. If language immersion weren't important to us (and maybe even if we couldn't support Mandarin at home), Yu Ying would fall behind Sheridan, Maret, GDS, and EL Haynes of the schools we know pretty well, and also almost certainly others we know less well. (It still would be ahead of a bunch of monolingual schools we're familiar with, but I don't want to call those out by name.)[/quote]
