JASPER COUNTY, Ga. (WTOC) - A new program in the Lowcountry will teach students two languages at one time. All while learning their normal curriculum.
A new program at the Jasper County School District means that kindergartners and first graders might be spending the first half of their day learning in English, y pasar la segunda mitad del día aprendiendo en español.
“The reason it’s starting in kindergartners, as we discussed, is that they are sponges,” Multilingual Coordinator Dawn Thayer said.
