Students that migrate to the U.S. during high school can feel overwhelmed, anxious, stressed and like an outsider. Much of their uncertainty can come from their confidence in English. I am hoping to create a small space before school, after school and lunch to enrich their English skills. Students will be able to use the Rosetta Software on the MacBook that supports their access to the English language. Even the basic, conversational English, can take months and years to acquire. I am hoping to build these skills to give the students the confidence they will need in their math, science, and other core classes.
