About the Project

As our school immigrant student population continues to grow, our school community lacks the knowledge, pedagogy, and resources to meet the cultural and social-emotional needs of this group of students. While our immigrant students come from all over the world, most are from Central America and seeking asylum and/or undocumented. They come to us with varies levels of education and many dimensions of trauma that challenge our school’s resources and ability to serve their needs. In addition, our school serves a large percentage of previous and current English Learners from historically poor and underserved communities.
