[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem is getting in, in the first place. It's all by lottery, they all give preferences to siblings and have 100s on their waitlists. Yu Ying does not accept new students after 2nd although there has been rumors that they may change this to 1st. There is also a possibility that they'll add 100% Mandarin preK3 soon.[/quote] I saw their school news letter that they were considering this. Interesting to 100% mandarin for PS3 and PK4[/quote] It's b/c of the DC CAS. They cannot expand the Mandarin in the latter grades so the only way to get more Mandarin is to front load it. Also, many kids have younger sibs - will make it easier to have the preschool kid at the same school as the older sib.[/quote] plus, that age is ideal for language learning - the kids truly have a chance at fluency! Age 7 is about the end of fluency capability on average (every child is different, this is an average)[/quote]
