[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you, that is a good reply. I will check into it tonight.

I asked her doesn’t she find German confusing with all those long, weird words and grammar, but she doesn’t have any trouble. I love it.

It has been a huge commitment, but to have a bilingual kid when you don’t speak another language, it made me feel really good[/quote]

German is actually an easy language for American kids to learn.

My kid who struggles in English and has some language related learning disabilities has no problems learning German in FCPS, non immersion.[/quote]

And for that reason, I do agree with whoever posted that German should be in every high school, along with Spanish.[/quote]

Yeah, but why is the school board of “diversity” trying to homogenize the languages and programs offered in FCPS. This is the best way to invite vouchers into the school system: only offer the exact same program to everyone. People like choices and having choices that are backed by public schools (not charters) helps provide much needed choice and diversity into the school system.  Getting rid of that is playing into the Voucher system.

It is very sad to see FCPS head this way. [/quote]
