[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think it could hurt to inquire with BASIS about the possibility of altering the language curriculum, especially since they clearly just altered it to substitute linguistics for Latin at 5th grade. The worst that can happen is they don’t allow it, but if other BASIS locations have that option (as a PP mentioned), perhaps it can be looked into. But even if there’s no hope of allowing earlier modern language study at advanced levels at BASIS, at the very least I don’t see why language clubs can’t be formed (even if they must be outside the school) by connecting like-minded immersion families. There must be a critical mass of students who either came from an immersion ES or otherwise have foreign language experience…Does anyone know if BASIS provides a general family directory for the school? I realize parents are less involved with their students in MS than ES, but perhaps they can coordinate on this matter? In general, how well/often do parents communicate? Do they set up any text/chat groups or online platforms?[/quote]
