[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im not sure why the fixation with Spanish..yes, it's a cool language and pretty regular in patterns, and therefore fairly easy to learn to a certain level (maybe not Cervantes or AP) if you know Latin. You can kind of pick it up at any point in life..I'm surprised kids coming from a bilingual school a) didn't choose a different school if they wanted to intensively continue with Spanish or b) find a way to supplement it when they join Latin, individually with tutors or an outside class, or joining with other families and bringing in a teacher for an after school club. Latin families are super nice about covering those who can't afford - seems super doable.
 I can see wanting Spanish at Latin, but I can't really see being upset that it isn't offered since it never has been. I can see feeling both - wanting/not upset- at the same time.[/quote]

YES. This. They don’t offer Spanish. Send your kid elsewhere if it means that much to you. [/quote]

Not sure how what you have (dismissively) typed isn't precisely what people are doing. Also not sure why you think that it is a bad thing for parents to advocate for additional offerings. [/quote]
