NewsDistrict web pages receive updated translations thank to Chaska High seniorsSeveral District 112 web pages are now available in Spanish thanks to the work of four Chaska High seniors. As a senior project, new graduates Laura Windmuller, Jon Rice, Katie Fernholz, and Jennie Mallon volunteered to translate 30 web pages in Spanish. The effort took several months and many re-writes as the four students worked with Spanish teachers to ensure accuracy. "We asked them to take on pages we thought particularly important to parents," said Community Relations Director Nancy Kracke. "For example, pages related to transportation, health serves and post-secondary education are all available now in Spanish. The students did a great job and we can't thank them enough for their time and effort on behalf of our Spanish-speaking families." The senior projects were new for the Class of 2010; approximately 175 students volunteered to take on a project that applied or stretched their skills to improve the community or explore career options. This Capstone Project will become a graduation requirement for the Class of 2013, this year's sophomores. | ||||||||||||||
