This.  and stop buying into the hype.   being sorta bilingual in spanish/english is really not that amazing, nor does is open secret doors.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but it is in deed amazing and does open many doors in job market![/quote]

omg, do you know how many adults are walking around who did not go to an immersion school, have English speaking parents, and are fluent in Spanish -  shit tons!

There[b] is [/b]research on early language acquisition and brain elasticity.  There is also research on learning a musical instrument and math and language.  There is tons of research on monetssori and executive function/self regulation (and these things have more impact on success than IQ).  You can't have everything.  We are happy to have the benefits of Montessori over the benefits of immersion; others make different choices.

For us the choice also came down to school size.  We wanted a small, sweet school for elementary (and middle if it works out).  Our elementary school never plans to be over 300-350 or so, which is important to us.  Others want the resources of a large school (isn't MV like 500 now).  One is not better than other other - just different, each with benefits and drawbacks.

Good luck OP.  Enjoy your baby's first year of shcool.  [/quote]

PP, I'd focus on English for yourself right now. Consider a refresher on spelling. [/quote]
