Title: Advocate the Study of German
Body: Relatively recently, Goethe-Institut put together a Werbemappe Pro-Deutsch that is a large collection of various materials that can be used to communicate to students, parents, and school administrators the importance of learning German and keeping a German program alive. It is available as a binder from the AATG Web store or free of charge from the GI website: http://www.goethe.de/ins/us/prj/pdt/adv/enindex.htm The links on the left should take you to sample letters as well as to an "Action plan" with concrete ideas and steps that one can take to "stay afloat" and thrive!
