[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP - why not CM? Is it bc the teachers are young? [/quote] Young teachers. But more than that I did not like the head of school's answers to my questions about cultural competency. [/quote] This. And I felt like the very young teachers were enthusiastic but felt like the administration was cold and unengaged [/quote] The administration seemed surprised and cold when Spanish speaking parents came to the orientation. The parents were left to have their children translate for them. The school was in Columbia Heights so they should have been prepared for interpretation or made other accommodations. [/quote] Are you kidding me? Is Columbia Heights a part of the USA? Then I don't understand why the 'spanish speaking parents' should expect any kind of special accomodation. They moved the the US so they need to learn English and, before you accuse me of racism, I am an immigrant but do not expect anyone to speak Russian to me when I go to school orientation meetings.
