[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here - just wanted to add that the reason we did not take the spot at Oyster is because we have heard from friends that Oyster is not a very challenging school for kids who are already Spanish speaking. They have said that the classes in Spanish are dumbed down so that the kids who don't speak Spanish can understand them - and therefore if you already speak the language,you won't learn much in that half of the curriculum. I'm not sure if this is true or not - but if so, the administration does need to be rigorous about trying to bring up or keep up the level of Spanish spoken at the school (or else Spanish dominant kids won't always want to attend). [/quote] Where did you go instead? [/quote] LAMB. We liked the individual and differentiated approach to learning inherent in the Montessori method. [/quote]
