Save our Spanish Dual Language Program
Our school John J. Pershing wants to eliminate the dual language program. The dual language program teaches students to be proficient in both Spanish and English. Class 609 and 709 want to stop the school from taking away our program.
Why is this important?
I am a student at John J. Pershing. I am a 7th grader which is about to be separated from my Dual Language program. We had this program for 2 years and it is important to my classmates in 709 because it helps them learn English. This program should continue because it helps the students that don't know English learn English better. It also helps students that know English well to also learn Spanish.
