[quote=Anonymous]As someone whose kids stayed in a dual language title I until the upper grades, I’ll tell you, take it year by year and assess how your kid is doing. It was hard to leave friends and beloved teachers, but it was a good move for our kids who are now getting so much more, especially extras like science as a core subject and much better academic enrichment. There were very bright kids and dear friends (of all backgrounds—we truly befriended awesome kids and families across the SES spectrum and still keep in touch) at the old school, but the overall culture set by some teachers and admin was punitive and often joyless. some teachers were amazing though, and our children had no difficulty academically at their new school. The difference in parent engagement at the new school is incredible, and the amount of resources invested in the school is truly game changing. [/quote]
