Burgess Peterson Academy offers Spanish to every grade level outside of kindergarten. This petition is to request that BPA start exposure in kindergarten.
Why is this important?
My daughter is a current Pre-k student zoned for Burgess-Peterson Academy Elementary. Currently, only students 1-5 receive Spanish as a "special". Research has shown that the earlier the exposure to a language helps to improve cognitive abilities and overall language retention. Our children should be able to have access to this wealth of knowledge housed at BPA.
