Dear Mr. Perez:  

Thank you for the opportunity to serve as part of the Hispanic curriculum review panel. It is very exciting to know that students in Miami-Dade public schools will soon have a curriculum that will expose them to the many contributions Hispanics have made to the United States.  

The proposed draft is both rich in culture and content. Attached you will find my comments and suggestions for Legado. Again, thank you for this wonderful opportunity. I look forward to any other way I may help in making this curriculum a success in our school system.  


Sincerely,  

Christine de Zayas-Fernández
