Well, I was under the understanding that the public education system was to make sure that everyone got a decent education regardless of ability to pay. Equal footing and all. As long as a second language is standard in other school districts, I don't believe they should do away with it. Isn't it even mandated in some states? I'm going to date myself, but I remember a requirement for a regents diploma in NY was having passed the language regents exam, which was about the equivalent of 3 years worth of high school study.

<shrugs>

Agree! :D

You = Greedy Chinawoman......

Good Morning all,

updates - work is good just very busy - on top of my regular position, I was offered to teach Italian just 10 hours per semester. It is good - I am learning more than they are ;)

I don't know if you remember I had issues with co-worker at the beginning - that seems to have gone away. We still dislike each other but don't have to work together unless absolutely necessary - some restructuring is going on so none of us knows what our jobs will be like or where we will be located. Hopefully it will all go well.

I received a letter yesterday that my 10 year GC had been approved ! I was happy ! Other than that.....trying to work some things out with my life overall :)

Welcome back even if you disappear again and won't see this :P

Yay I knew you would get it approved.

thank you ! I can move on now.

oh oh .....so i fell on friday...apparently i dont use my hands to protect me...hit my head right on the pavement ! lol

Yikes! don't walk with your hands in your pockets :P

argh must have eaten/touched something i'm allergic to cos, rash everywhere aaaaaah

Oh no that is not fun. I can totally relate though.
