The Characteristics of 1999--is an update necessary?

As an older person without portfolio and retired, I have lots of time on my hands to ask "thought questions" such as the title of my note today implies.  I would like to ask those presently in NADSFL leadership positions if the time has come to revisit the Characteristics that many of us had a great part in formulating and reformulating in 1991 (Opryland) and 1998, respectively.  It would be a worthwhile activity, in my view, to update such important contributions to the profession.  I…See More

Spanish/French teacher seeking employment in 2011-12

If someone is looking for a Sp/Fr teacher, K-12, I was recently contacted by my former KU colleague--a Spanish national with 1 more year on her visa is available.  She is presently teaching (and teaching very well) in a rural area, would like to find a position in an urban/suburban area.  If you know of something, contact me me off-list, and I will send you the name and c.v.   Thank you for your time.  Paul GarcíaSee More
