    Hi Lea,
    Nice to see a face to the name. I really hope we can get this going for 2010. My daughter is starting PreK at 132 this year, so she'll be ready. And I still want to work on the afterschool program as well.

    I am just wondering if there has been any progress on finding a home for the new dual language program in WIlliamsburg for the fall? We are still very interested!

    I highly recommend this group. Together we can make it happen in Williamsburg and open a dual-language program. September 2009 is possible with enough parents and children - 12 anglophones and 12 francophones entering grade K.

    Hello Elisabeth,
    We are looking to start a kindergarten in 2010 in district 14. We checked out PS 132, it's a great school. Not sure it will suit your daughter but maybe she will be able to get involved in a french after school program?
    Stay tuned for more news!

    District 14!!!! Go PS. 132!!! That would be wonderful. My daughter is there. She is a categorie 2 (half-francophone), but will enter 2nd grade next year. I am a native french. Could it still work? Even if she is not entering K?
