[quote=Anonymous]We're the crash-test dummies on this. We were in private, with French instruction, in K-2. The level of instruction was extremely low. We have been in an ACPS public since 3d grade. The PTA sponsors once-a-week, optional twice-a-week French; Spanish is offered through a non-profit that exists for this purpose and provides elementary-level Spanish instruction at hundreds of elementary schools. The ACPS after-school French is no less intense (meaning not very) than the in-school French in private school. DC has been in the French program for three years, and is familiar with basic vocab, short-sentences, pronunciation (teacher is a native French speaker). On the whole, very worthwhile, just not what a true immersion language program like WIS or Maret would have. But comparable to the actual proficiency level DC would have at almost every other private. [/quote]
