Three Language Meeting

Since joining the Peace Corps in Belize, I have experienced a wide range of new things. Just recently I was asked to sit in on a Disciplinary Committee Meeting for the high school: students who have been suspended twice come in with their parents and meet with the board to discuss their future. The cool thing about Belize is that there are many different cultures and languages; when one student and his mother came in it was made clear that the mother did not speak English or Kriol. The meeting was conducted in Spanish, English and Kriol. My first three language meeting.
