Our school is made up of a diverse student body, with 29 different languages spoken. These languages include: Mandarin, Cantonese, Punjabi, Mongolian, Korean, Japanese, German, Spanish, Hindi, Tamil, Nepali, Vietnamese, Thai, Bulgarian, Italian, Tagalog, Bangle, Arabic, America, Hungarian, Portuguese, Farsi, Urdu, Russian, Hebrew, French, Cambodian, Tibetan, and English. This offers our students the opportunity to engage in rich cultural discussions that foster an appreciation for diversity. 30% of our students are English Language Learners. About 20% percent of our students participate in the Free or Reduced Lunch program and are considered Socially-Economically disadvantaged. I will have a classroom of twenty five second grade students. I have not met them yet but know that they will have a wide variety of strengths and abilities. I'm looking forward to a year filled with stories and to see my students grow as readers and learners in a literature enriched environment.
