SPANISH
Spanish will be taught this semester through the social studies class. Each class will receive one hour of Spanish instruction every 2 weeks. Don’t worry- I will not be teaching this class. Mrs. Smith, our Spanish teacher, will be teaching the class. The Spanish grade will count as 10% of their social studies grade. Each student will need to have a folder designated for Spanish instruction. We are very excited about this opportunity for our students to learn a foreign language.
