“The removal of three teachers from Angevine Middle School’s dual language program has prompted concerns from the Latino community, and exposed a broader dilemma of how teachers can meet the needs of native English- and Spanish-speaking students alike.

Administrators at the Lafayette middle school changed the responsibilities of three of the staff, including an exchange teacher from Boulder’s sister city in Mexico, with just weeks left in the school year. All of the teachers remain employed with the school district until school ends Thursday, but none are working solely in the school’s bilingual program.”*
