[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it worth applying in higher grades? Is there a chance of passing a test?[/quote] It will be VERY hard. [/quote] How hard? Like reading and writing and speaking on grade level? Or harder?[/quote] My kids went through RCF many years ago so this is old information but the only kids who were allowed in at higher levels were fully bilingual kids who jump right in with the work. They had lived overseas and had international parents so were fully bilingual. I don't think, however, that it is *harder* than grade level because they weren't all at the top of the class. They were, however, able to keep up without additional in-class help in the foreign language. I think if my kids are anywhere close to grade level, I would give it a try, especially if there is support at home in both languages. [/quote]
