[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was told that Chinese families who apply the first day will also get a preference off the waitlist--just something to keep in mind y'all.[/quote] How are they allowed to do this, and what is the criteria? ie, if Eastern European Jews born in NYC adopt a baby from china, and raise her monolingual in woodley park, are they a Chinese family? How about the family where ds is 1/4 Chinese and nobody speaks the language or has set foot in china? [/quote] How is this any different than LAMB who places native Spanish speakers on their waitlist into open spots vacated by native Spanish speakers or English-dominant speakers vacated by English-dominant speakers? Don't you guys believe that there are Mandarin speaking kids in DC? Doesn't that minority deserve the same consideration? [/quote]
