[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Yu Ying is in the process of applying to be an IB school. It says on its website that it not an IB school yet, but is "in the earliest stages of this process." Accordingly, it is not listed on the IB website as a PYP school.

I have no opinion on whether the 3 IB DCPS schools are "dreck," although it's certainly an uncharitable and unsupported opinion (speaking of unsupported opinions), but they are IB schools, so the OP might want to visit them.

WIS: IB test results for their students (most of whom get not just the IB diploma but a bilingual IB diploma) are excellent, as is their international reputation. Among my colleagues, whose children have attended at least 2-3 dozen international and UN schools around the world, the reputation of WIS places it in the top tier anywhere, not just in the US. But that is neither here not there; I was simply providing information for the OP, who--if he/she really wants to pursue an IB PYP school--might want to start there with her research even though it is a private school."

The website is dated. The school has gone through applicant, candidate, and is now finishing the authorization process. By the end of this school it will be an IB world school.

As a Chinese Immersion school, they are pursuing the bilingual IB Diploma, naturally. I understand WIS offers it in French and Spanish. This will be a fresh opportunity for DC families.[/quote]
