We celebrated the biliteracy of this @HuntingtonSCSD 5th grader today! He did an amazing job sharing the importance of multilingualism to his 5th grade classmates. Plus his family brought in the BEST sambusas! You’re going to do great things, Hizam! 🇾🇪 🇺🇸

Thank you to @EversonMuseum for hosting our RSIP Mini-Academy students today as they get ready to begin school at @SyracuseSchools! We visited ceramic exhibits within the museum and made our own mandalas out of clay. @SCSDENL
@SCSDENL teachers from @NottinghamSCSD hosted parent conferences at CYO this morning. Thanks to the ENL and Guidance team for creating this opportunity for families!
We are so proud of the #SCSDDiversity of our students! @GrantGatorsSCSD 8th grader Mooloe Eh Paw was born in the U.S. but her family came here from Thailand. She said they maintain many traditions from Thailand – her favorite is making Pad Gra Prow for herself and her siblings!
Welcome Academy students are learning about places they will find in their schools as they get ready to join their @SCSDENL peers at @SyracuseSchools soon!
Ms Yupanqui’s fifth graders practiced their presentation skills as they shared their cultural brochures to wrap up Unit 1! Students shared key words in their home language and developed their cultural competence with this creative end of unit project!
