[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think that anyone at the school has any complaints about the Spanish teacher's abilities.[/quote]

Wasn't there a whole thread dedicated to this issue (or non-issue, depending on who you ask) a year ago?[/quote]

Yes, there was.  A huge thread.  Not one actual Mundo averse parent had this complaint about the Spanish teachers.

The issues were only with the Spanish spoken by people associated with the school that were not Spanish teachers.  I'm sure I'm one of the people complained about as I'm a frequent volunteer (not in the classroom) who speaks Spanish but not all that well.  Someone might hear me making an effort, but my failures should not be imputed to the school.  There has since been a more organized strategy to get translations of parent-initiated communications done by volunteers who are native Spanish speakers, but sometimes people wing it.  I applaud the parents who have volunteered to take on this onerous role, the parents who make the effort to be inclusive and practice their Spanish, and the school for providing a non-judgmental attitude for this to occur.  But either way, it has nothing to do with the Spanish spoken in the classroom, about which I've heard zero complaints in my almost four years as a busy body parent.[/quote]
