to study regularly to get good grades.

 Do I speak English in class?
Most of the class is taught in Spanish.  Students are encouraged to try to 
speak and ask questions in Spanish, but will be allowed to use English to 
express and concerns or questions they may have after they have raised their 
hands and asked permission to do so.

 Why do you talk to the students only in Spanish?
The immersion experience is effective.  Students are able to practice talking 
in Spanish exclusively and they gain confidence communicating with a native 
speaker.

 I don't know Spanish.  How can I help my child?
Daily review of your child's agenda is a good place to start. Even if there 
is no homework, ask to see their notes, make flashcards with them showing 
pictures on one side and the Spanish word on the other, invest in a spanish-
english dictionary for home. Above all else, show enthusiasm for the 
language, take an interest in what they are learning in Spanish and 
encourage them to help you learn some things. It will mean a lot more than 
you think.
