[quote=Anonymous]MV parent here:  This is DC's second year.  My husband and I know basic to intermediate Spanish from high school/college.  I understand and can read Spanish to probably an 8th grade level so I can help on homework for now (at MV this is basically helping him read the books he comes home with in Spanish for K).  However, the biggest issue is conversational Spanish.  I have difficulty speaking in Spanish which makes it hard to address fluency in the household.

That said to date DC is doing well (accent, fluency and vocabulary are age appropriate), according to MV's assessments and also from feedback from native Spanish-speaking friends and from our community.  I was worried about summer last year and sent DC to a Spanish immersion camp. I believed this kept DC on track.  Also, 100% Spanish in the camp classroom encouraged DC to speak to his friends in Spanish instead of English (as reported by Spanish teacher).  Also, MV's PS3 and PK4 classes are all Spanish so I think that will be beneficial for children's fluency.[/quote]
