Tagged: children, North Carolina, parents, studentPosted on: December 11th, 2006“As part of Greene County Schools’ Los Puentes Dual Language program, which teaches students Spanish and English through total immersion, Pearsall and her class spoke only Spanish on Thursday. The program ”” which translates to “bridges” ”” is the county’s unique way of approaching education for students who speak English as a Second Language (ESL) and parents of English-speaking students who want their children to speak a second language fluently.
Half of Los Puentes students are native English speakers. The other half are ESL students.”
