[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yup, this what is happening at our W school. As you get higher and higher, 75-90% native speakers. AP classes are mainly native speakers. Our teacher prefers it that way and wants all the non-native speakers to drop out. That way, students score mostly 4s and 5s and she looks good. Sucks![/quote] If I were an immigrant from a Spanish speaking country, and my American born kids can somewhat, albeit not very fluent, speak my native tongue, I would encourage them to take Spanish. Why learn an entirely different language when the kids should/can learn a language in which is part of their heritage? So while I am not happy that my child is behind in a Spanish class where there seems to be some "native" speakers, I don't fault them on taking the class as there could be many reasons. We just assume they are "native" speakers but perhaps they are not as fluent as they can be. [/quote]
