[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Future DCI parent here! If the haters are coming out the school must be good! So excited for it and the kids! See you soon when my kid starts. He's in a Spanish immersion feeder now, but is fluent in French, so I'm hoping he can take some courses in French to get a context away from home. No where else in the country would this be even a remote possibility.[/quote]

Silver Spring International, and Washington International are both schools that have both French and Spanish immersions options at the middle school level, and are in this metro area.  I'm sure there are many such schools around the country.

I think DCI is a great thing, and I hope it succeeds but it's not that rare of a model. [/quote]

Isn't WIS an exclusive private school?  And Silver Spring International is a bilingual middle school?  And both are French/Spanish?

That's nice, but it's not exactly in the same league as a trilingual program which includes the full HS IB Programme with the IB Diploma.  [/quote]

WIS is IB and offers Mandarin, French, Spanish and German. German is only for those from the German embassy. YU Ying got it's star and help,from WIS administrators, so YY, and subsequently DCI,  was based on WIS model. The difference is WIS is 30k plus with a lot of international students and YY is free.

Correction Dutch, not German. [/quote]
