[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why bother to widen the net when there's rising demand for Latin's brand of education among a growing group of middle-class families. Who wins when high SES DC parents flee the District for lack of decent public middle and high schools? The inconvenient truth is that poor minority kids who study Chinese in public schools tend not to get enough Chinese or English, absent inputs DCPCS isn't providing. Their families can't afford to reinforce Chinese at home with au pairs, tutors, camps etc. They also can't afford to provide extra ELA inputs. In MoCo, the 2 Chinese ES immersion programs send poor kids to summer immersion camps free of charge. YuYing does not. Poor kids in Ward 7 and 8 are probably better off staying close to home for their schooling, as long as they attend a well-run charter. Call me names if you have the energy, but I'm not wrong.[/quote] The last of a “dying” breed.[/quote]
