[quote=Anonymous][b]When YY PPs fuss about non-Chinese speaking admins, we wonder what planet you're on!  No question that our admins wouldn't speak Spanish, or do a lot of direct outreach to the Spanish-speaking community.[/b]  If the board must look to cities around the country to find the right sorts (with Montessori experience), and have them schooled them in the ways of running DC Metro area elementary schools, that's what happens.

How many Spanish speakers live in the US?  How many bilingual Mandarin speakers?  Nevermind who out of these groups are qualified to run a school?  To expect a Mandarin immersion school to be run exactly like a Spanish immersion school is unrealistic -  Hey!  We do it why can't you!   You should be counting your lucky stars rather than criticizing others when you have it easier simply due to demographics.

Whoah, fair point that LAMB is going the extra mile to hire Spanish-speaking Montessori trained admins (probably not a gazillion hanging around the Metro region), if she can be believed.
