[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We got in to Yu Ying and I am nervous - never actually thought we would get in. I am bad at languages. If my kid struggles what happens? What if your kid is at an immersion school and ends up sucking at learning a foreign language? You either continue through with bad grades or go back to general lottery? I could really use some advice.[/quote] YY offers a lot of support for none native speakers and parents who struggle with languages. You would be hard pressed to find a better PK3 - 5th in DC.[/quote] This is not accurate! We have been at the school for years and only first year/ new students receive extra language support. We have asked repeatedly for evidence and scores that our DD is really on level. We are told qualitatively that she is. FWIW we have our DD attending for the soft qualities the school provides. It’s small, warm, safe and the teachers for the most part are kind. This is hard to come by at a a dcps or charter school locally. Did I mention class sizes are typically 17 or so? [/quote]
