[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm not concerned about a neighborhood school. I'm concerned about my child speaking fluent Chinese. Someday, when your child is working in the mailroom at my child's company, maybe he can submit a question to the president, and ask her. [/quote] Silly woman. There's a lot more fluent Chinese speakers than company presidents. [/quote] SillyYu Ying families. How many of the pupils are bilingual? How many kids speak Chinese in the halls and at recess at YY? How many have Chinese au pairs at home (about 3!). Nearly half were bilingual in some dialect at our neighborhood Chinese immersion program in Queens NYC before we moved to Capitol Hill. There's a lot more fluent Chinese speakers with little kids in DC who avoid YY for cultural reasons than you think. Yea, cultural reasons, such as actually being Chinese. And this observation makes me a troll, right, right. [/quote]
