Teachers and staff at the Academy are hoping this gesture will help them re-establish their exchange program with the Argentine school. The relationship was initiated years ago under a previous administration at Columbus Spanish Immersion Academy. I was very impressed with the programs I learned about at the Florida Day School. I also enjoyed delivering the gifts from the Ohio students and hope the relationship between the Columbus Spanish Immersion Academy and the Florida Day School grows and flourishes in the years to come. The Columbus Spanish Immersion Academy, located at 2155 Fenton Street near Northland Mall, is an alternative school for students in kindergarten through eighth grade.
Students learn to speak Spanish naturally by hearing and using it in their regular activities.
Also today, Mrs. Taft attended a ceremony where Governor Bob Taft signed a cultural exchange agreement between the State of Ohio and the City of Buenos Aires to further promote cultural, arts and educational exchanges between Ohio and Buenos Aires. Mrs. Taft is accompanying Governor Bob Taft and the delegation of 24 Ohio companies and organizations on the Ohio Business Mission to Argentina, Brazil and Chile.
