\"a la fecha\" = as of the date

\"alumno(a)\" = student

\"col\" I believe is an abbreviation for \"colegio\" which would mean \"school\"

Then the name of the school

  -> thank you, Martin - Mike :)

disagree  Lila Castillo: as of this date es "desde hoy" el texto dice a la fecha "at this date"
27 mins
  -> "As of the date" does not mean "sarting today" - it does not mean "desde hoy" - it means "still as of today" without specifying when it began. Mike :)

STUDENT _____, ON THE DATE ___________, IN COL LA SALLE BULEVARS ________


Explanation:
Is this a form with blanks? "Bulevars" means "boulevard" and I can't really see how else this sentence could make sense if that were not the case.


STUDENT: _____________________

ON THE DATE: __________________

IN COL LA SALLE BULEVARS (possibly the address of the school).

I am assuming that the name of the student precedes the sentence, i.e., \"John Deer is currently...\"

Explanation:
ALUMNO(A) A LA FECHA EN EL (LA) COL LA SALLE BULEVARES

.... STUDENT AT THIS DATE AT COL LA SALLE BULEVARES
OR
..... CURRENTLY A STUDENT AT COL LA SALLE BULEVARES

The first suggestion sounds literal, but if this is a form, or a diploma, it might be clear.

At present ...


Explanation:
Up to the present...

What I wuold ask as an educator is for the translator to elucidarte as much as possible the level of the schoolThe abbreciation COL

In English we say college refreing to a third level institution.

In French the word collège refers to a level of education before secondary school (translated in the United States as Middle School or Junior High)

What does Colegio mean in Spanish in this context? Just something to be careful about.
