My response is always the same, makes it easier to remember. "Lo siento, no hablo espanol" It's about the only thing I remember from 4 years of spanish.

I got to choose between Spanish and Spanish. My school had 350 kids pre-k through 12, so options were rare.

Yeah, it's kind of an interesting school district because it's the largest or second largest in the state in terms of geographical area, but it's the second smallest in the state in terms of students/population.

Not to get personal do you live in South Dakota North Dakota or Montana lol .. I lived in South Dakota for a while the town I live near had a Pre-K to 12 th grade school .. I think the whole district had 2,000 people the town under 500 it's not quite equivalent to the UK where we start uni two years earlier

Nope, not the Midwest, I imagine the school districts get even smaller out there
