German may say Guten Tag at East this fall!

Previously I lamented in my blog about the East High principal getting rid of German. It seems over the summer, Herr Harris may have had a change of heart. It probably didn't hurt that many parents and community members kept up the pressure to reinstate the language. It appears now that funding is available for one class hour per day of German at the school. This will mean combining German 2 through 4 students into one class which will at least allow East students the opportunity to get four years of the same language. Not the best cause scenario but we'll take it!
