Venite, Parentes! Cognoscamus Linguam Latinam!

So here I am, getting CAGSE's Latin program into schools in the US.
Only, it ain't happening.
Kids think its better to have a live language, a modern language.
Even one that's swank, like, say NAIS' flavor of the month Mandarin Chinese.
The parents don't know better.

So here's what I have to say to the parents.

Call me. 845 309 5808.
Come to a class.
We'll do some Latin together.

Then you can make an informed decision about how critical Latin could and will be in your son's or daughter's education.

It ain't just about feelings. Oh, I love that book.
Yeah, but why?
Well, because it's cool.
No, there has to be something.
You have to be able to articulate what that something is.
English doesn't necessarily accomplish that for you.

Latin will.
And here's the fun part.
It is immediately applicable to everything you do.

I kid you not.
