On June 6, 2025, as we do every year on the same date, we celebrated the birthday of our Spanish school, which was founded 16 years ago.
That June, the first student arrived for what were initially just private lessons offered by Carmen. But new students quickly arrived, and Carmen had to ask other teachers for help. So in 2010, there was a change from “Carmen Vega, Spanish teacher” to “Escuela Carmen Vega.”
Since then, our school has grown, welcoming more students from all over the world, increasing the number of teachers, and welcoming new host families. This big family has grown a little more each year.
So every June 6th we celebrate this life of our school with our teachers, families, and students in attendance. It was a lovely party with the usual ingredients: delicious food prepared by the families, dancing, music, and speeches. And this year our teachers received the school T-shirt with this slogan: “Learn a language, live life to the FULLEST.”
