[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Seriously, complaining about imperfect (yet already functional) Chinese of some students who have another decade to perfect their mastery of the language translates into... sour grapes.[/quote] Sour grapes about what? We pulled out of YY because, as American Born Chinese parents, we felt like zoo animals there. If we're going to be zoo animals, we'd much rather do it at our fine WOP IB school with more fellow Chinese parents than at YY. What we feel is relief, and bewilderment that DC Charter remains convinced that an immersion school can work well without more than a handful of Chinese parents and kids to model the language and culture for the non-Chinese, and without Chinese administrators. We're shooting for IB at a private or MoCo. Hint: 3,000 years of tradition, language and culture are a little hard to argue with.... [/quote]
