Bilingual Classes
- Share via
As a parent, I am extremely pleased with the bilingual gifted and talented education program being provided by the Anaheim City School District. Participation in this program has enabled my son to develop high skills of English proficiency, strong academic skills, the ability to think critically, and a positive self-concept. In contradiction to what U.S. Secretary of Education William Bennett has stated concerning the lack of effectiveness of bilingual education programs, my son’s achievements are proof of the successful practices in bilingual classrooms.
By the way, my son entered schools in California as non-English-speaking and is currently fully proficient and literate in Spanish and English.
