Schools reach out to Spanish-speaking parents – Galveston, Texas
Tagged: citizenship, library, Mexico, parents, student, Texas
The citizenship classes Karina Vasquez Lopez attends on weeknights are as much for her infant son as they are for her.
The classes at Galveston’s L.A. Morgan Elementary School library are helping Lopez, who recently immigrated from Mexico, learn English and study for a citizenship test. Her real goal, however, is to help her son with his homework when he starts school.
On a recent weeknight, Lopez and eight other immigrants crowded into plastic chairs built for elementary students and pored over maps of the United States in a class offered through a partnership between Galveston’s public school district and College of the Mainland.”*
