Immigration issue growing in SEK – Pittsburg, Kansas
Tagged: children, population, student“Out of Pittsburg’s population of about 20,000, Kitchen said there were maybe two or three families with Spanish-speaking children in 1999. A few years later, when Kitchen came back looking for a job, she said the situation had changed.
Matthew Wendt, Pittsburg USD 250 assistant school superintendent, learned that Kitchen, who taught first grade, was fluent in Spanish, and asked her to work with the district’s Spanish-speaking children. Seven years after graduating from Pittsburg State, Kitchen now teaches 28-35 English Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL students) per year.”
