Abstract | Elizabeth Price, the principal of South Graham Elementary School, met with Olivia Joyner to discuss the programs available at the school for students who come to the school speaking English as a second language, or not at all. South Graham, in an effort to promote global consciousness, inclusivity, and the value of being able to speak multiple languages, is a school that offers not only ESL (English as a Second Language) classes, but also a dual-language-immersion program, and is credited as a Global Passport School. Principal Price hopes that students will graduate from the school having not only a deeper understanding of world cultures, but additionally a realization of the benefits of being able to speak more than one language. She recognizes that many individuals who live in North Carolina, and the United States speak Spanish, and therefore believes being able to understand and speak the language is a useful tool. |
