PS 84 has a dual language Spanish program and now they're starting up French for next Fall. Anyone know the process for approaching school about starting dual language program? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

If you live out of the zone you can participate in the district 3 lottery to get in, but you have to be accepted to the school before you can apply for the DL program. [ Reply | More

Not necessarily. If your dc is French speaker they will likely take you, as they are looking for those. The program needs a balance to be successful. [ Reply | More
