[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, do you speak fluent French?

Have you ever lived in a francophone country, or do you have a significant knowledge of francophone culture?  I'd just like to get a sense of your experience with this.  thanks[/quote]

Could you please explain the purpose of your question? You're asking for credentials, it appears. Are you implying that one needs to have fluency in french and expertise in francophone culture to encourage starting a charter school? Also, I don't know if anyone can claim "knowledge of francophone culture". The Diaspora literally traverses the entire planet with Francophones from all sorts of DIFFERENT cultures making up the greater Francophone culture. Some African nations speak English, but I wouldn't pretend that I know their culture because I also speak English. Some older Vietnamese speak French, but it would be absurd to ask someone from Montreal to explain the Vietnamese culture just because they share a mother language. Am I wrong?[/quote]
