I am looking at the FCPS Immersion Program page. Chinese is not listed as being at any school in FCPS. THe page lists German, French, Spanish, Korean and Japanese.

So I am a bit confused. [/quote]

It's not immersion.  It's FLES, which entails some exposure that can help a kid take a full-year course earlier in middle school.

Some people complain, either because they don't like the language in question or they are just cranky. I was exposed to French in a FLES program in FCPS, continued with French in high school  and was prepared to take upper-level French classes at an Ivy as a freshman.

Thanks. The original post made it sound like the entire school was language immersion and not an hour a week. I have actually wondered why they have not added a Chinese language immersion program because it would be a good language to add. [/quote]
