The San Antonio Independent School District is partnering with the Mexican Consulate to offer free literacy classes to Spanish-speaking adults.
The Spanish literacy classes are part of a certificate program called Plazas Comunitarias, which is recognized in both the United States and Mexico.
Classes start this week at Irving Dual Language Academy and Doris Miller Elementary School and will be available both in the morning and in the evening.
According to a news release, the district hopes that offering the courses will “enhance parents’ support of their children’s learning in school” and make it easier for them to find jobs.
