English Education staff continuously modify programming as new issues and needs arise. Examples include the Family English School, Functional Work English, and Citizenship Preparation classes. But as time went by, he learned a whole lot. I am very pleased and honored. Quality education is provided to parents lacking basic English skills in speaking, reading, writing, and comprehension.
Children can prepare for school in a healthy, safe, and positive environment.
The school works with parents and children together and separately to help break the cycle of intergenerational illiteracy. The school meets four days weekly throughout the school year. It is based on the nationally recognized Kenan Family Literacy model. A typical day for parents includes several hours of English language instruction at an appropriate level, as well as parent-child interaction time. While parents attend classes, their children develop the skills needed to be comfortable and successful in a school environment through free play, story times, arts and crafts, and culturally specific activities.
