If you want to keep Spanish, please email our Interim Acting Principal, Cindy Wang and let her know why Spanish should continue at PS 33. Everyone should email her at: [email protected]

While I support the idea of Spanish as an enhancement - I am appalled by the behavior of the instructor...demeaning, and often bullying behavior directed at children. My vote is to keep Spanish with a new instructor or make it an optional enhancement for those who do not wish their child to learn a language from this teacher.

I believe that learning Spanish language is of the essence for our children and their future in this country. In all the main cities, knowledge of Spanish has often become a requirement for getting jobs. We need to prepare our kids for the future that is ahead of them. They should have Spanish class at least twice a week.

My kids have taken several different language classes over the years, but my son has learned much more from the class at PS 33 than any of the others. It is a huge benefit to me that he receives foreign language instruction during the school day as well. Please do not take away this excellent program.

Our daughter enjoys Spanish and it is clearly expanding her thinking and her language skills. Please keep Spanish at PS33.

We should be increasing foreign language arts, not reducing or eliminating it.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/3739690.stm Research shows that learning a second language "boosts" brain-power, especially for early learners. Bilingualism encourages creativity and abstract reasoning. Exposure to another language opens the door to learning another culture, other communities, other lives. In this day and age we should do all we can to nurture more flexible view points and broader world views.

A Spanish curriculum for our children helps to celebrate our beautiful culture of diversity that sets this school apart from others. Schools are focusing more and more on test prep and are taking away the creativity and expansion of the mind that comes from embracing what other countries consider a normal part of elementary school education. Some countries (who are performing as the top in the world) study 3 or more languages at this age! Let's stand out as unique in offering this to our children. I am willing to support the school in fundraising in other ways to keep this program if more funds are needed.
