[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Digital Literacy is a joke at NB

Spanish has issues- there is a really bad Spanish teacher that everyone has for Spanish 2, and some have for Spanish 3 and also 1.  Parents have been trying to get rid of her for over a decade (seriously). This year there was some minor progress (another teacher teaching Honors Spanish 3 for some sections - I hope my child has that teacher next year).

I heard the Adminstration actually met with the Administration at WJ and heard first hand how unprepared kids from NB were in Spanish 3 and 4 at WJ.  These same kids got straight As at NB, and massive problems at WJ, as in dropping down and repeating levels, or quitting Spanish altogether, and some who just switched to Latin, French or Italian.

I have 1 still there in 7th and 1 at WJ, and if I had to do it again, both kids would take other electives. Not Digital Literacy, and not Spanish in sixth grade.[/quote]

Except that you must take either Digital Literacy or Foreign Language in 6th Grade.  There is no other elective for that particular slot.  Take French instead?[/quote]
