Congratulazioni @20_doe e PS 112! Buon mese del patrimonio italoamericano! We are proud to celebrate culture, accelerated learning and biliteracy through dual language (shameless plug: we offer dual language in five languages across elementary and middle school grades in D20)
Ciao!
In celebration of #ItalianHeritageMonth, check out P.S. 112 Lefferts Park, a school participating in our Dual Language programs!
Here, students learn in both English and Italian. The program also hopes to raise awareness about Italian culture and encourage diversity.
