[quote=Anonymous]You're making it sound like IBD at DCI is on a par with the best suburban programs in the DMV. Untrue. I have nieces and nephews in IB programs in MoCo so I know that you're incorrect in thinking that there's no well tracked progression from K-12 in the burbs for immersion. My siblings' kids did Chinese immersion at College Gardens before Robert Frost MS for partial immersion (automatic feed). They've had a good many native speakers (like our family) in their classes all along. It's not difficult to test into Richard Montgomery's IBD program for Chinese and BCC has IBD for all in-boundary students who meet prerequisites. In the better suburban programs, kids can't land in IBD classes if they haven't cleared established academic bars down the chain like they can at DCI. Same story in Arlington and Fairfax. IBD FOR ALL only works so well whatever sugarcoating you want to apply. I'm prepared to believe that Latin offers more HS rigor overall, and that Latin Cooper's future HS might, too. [/quote]
