It looks as if Chief Sealth will be the final destination for Mandarin immersion students who begin at Seattle’s Beacon Hill International elementary and continue on at Denny Middle School. Knowing there’s a secure Mandarin pathway through the end of high school is a big plus for parents contemplating beginning in Kindergarten.
This is similar to Portland, Oregon’s Woodstock Elementary — Hosford Middle School — Cleveland High School progression.
Kudos to the Seattle Public Schools.
