BIENVENIDOS!! First Semester begins (Red Day) and we're off to doing Spanish Language, Culture and an opportunity to be integrated into the 2nd most spoken language in the U.S. Every students is responsible for all missed material including class handounts and homework. If you are absent or know you will be absent, please request the material ahead of time and see my web page for updated information. Please pick up handouts before your absence (or as soon as you return to school if you've been ill) and check the website. If your absence is prolonged for more than a couple of days, see Mr. Brache to obtain the necessary material.

Every level will have weekly homework assignments, be it website practices or revision of cross-curricular material on the internet. All material is due every Monday (or every 1st school day of the week). ** ** ** ** Verify that your material has 1) your name 2) your class and 3) the date of your assignment.

Although Señor Brache is proud to be Cuban by birth, you should know that I'm a staunch supporter of the country where I now hold my citizenship, where I married and where my children were born: The United States of America. I so wished that my flag could fly as freely as does the flag of the USA. God bless America!
