For the last number of months, we have been meeting with a number of supporters for the proposal. It all got started when we met a few key people after making contact with the Spanish language consultant of Alberta.
We call them Friends because they represent different organizations and communities that would like to see the creation of a Spanish language program in the public schools. They have shared insights and given us direction that we may not have otherwise. Some of those people include:
Llilana Ardiles - Manitoba Spanish Teacher's Association
Maria Arentsen - University of St. Boniface
Lucila Carrasco - Spanish Teacher Liason, Chilean Association President
Teruel Carrasco - Lawyer, Chilean Association
Monica Morales - Spanish Teacher
Monica Ruiz - University of Winnipeg
Betina Sevi - University of St. Boniface
Tony Tavares - Dept. of Education language consultant
As well as there are language consultants in attendance.
It may be summer now, but we have much to do in the next few months. How will you be involved?
