“The demand for bilingual educators is up all across the United States. The same is true for Tulsa Public Schools. This week, a team from Tulsa Public Schools is leaving for Puerto Rico to try to bring some college graduates back to Tulsa. Six In The Morning reporter Carina Sonn reports Tulsa Public Schools needs more than 20 bilingual instructors, mainly to help students whose first language is Spanish.
The problem facing Tulsa Public Schools and other schools across the country is the lack of bilingual teachers coming out of college. At Disney Elementary School at 11702 East 25th Street in Tulsa, teachers are busy with a group of mostly Hispanic kindergarteners.”
