We're new to the district and I wanted to know if anyone is aware as to why both the Japanese schools are in North section of the district, and both the Mandarin schools are in south Seattle?

What was the reasoning behind this grouping? Why couldn't they do 1 Japanese, 1 Mandarin school in North vs south so as to make it easily accessible for majority of the district?

Spanish is in high demand and hence it's offered in 5 immersion elementary schools, but why are the two Asian languages segregated like this?

Hi everyone,

I'm turning to reddit to gather info about a couple of elementary schools in N Seattle which might be good for kids needing more social emotional support under extended resource program.

Based on our current address our daughter who will be attending K in fall this year would go into Laurelhurst  elementary. Our lease is up for renewal and we were looking into moving and might go to a place where she would be zoned under broadview Thompson k-8.

I would like to know based on parents ' experiences at either of these schools especially if your kiddo had an iep., So that we can decide if we should move.

Also if there's any other recommendation of a school which offers this support, please let me know.

I have looked at great schools and niche but they don't provide the full picture. Also we just finished the iep  evaluation so definitely missed the choice application.
