[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it makes anyone feel better, I applied to Yu Ying for my three year old, but we'll go there only if we don't get in anywhere else. I don't have any interest in him learning Chinese and would rather not have my son in a language immersion school of any type. But we would definitely go there over at least one of my in-boundary options (Raymond). Any of my other 11 schools I would probably prefer over Yu Ying. I hear it's a great school, but I think just not for us.[/quote]

Just interested, what schools did you pick?[/quote]

My top choices are Capital City PCS, Inspired Teaching School, and Two Rivers PCS. Those three schools all have a similar philosophy (inspired teaching/expeditionary learning) and I loved my visit to all of these schools. I put EL Haynes next because it is close (and expeditionary learning as well). Mundo Verde, DC Bilingual, etc are all on the list but further down (OK with language immersion but value other things more). We got wait-listed at Creative Minds (121) and LAMB (49). I also applied to Stokes, Shining Stars Montessori (other schools not participating in the common lottery). Powell and Raymond are our in boundary schools and on the list (Raymond last). I liked Powell a lot; did not visit Raymond.[/quote]
