My 4th grade students are very special and very diverse. They all speak two languages fluently, Spanish and Bengali primarily, with English as their second language. While many of their academic skills are below grade level average, to have the ability to translate between two languages within seconds, shows their true brilliance and capabilities. Our school has a very diverse culture with students of many backgrounds: mainly Bengali, Hispanic, and Asian, and with approximately 30% of the students being English Language Learners. The teachers and staff do all they can to support the many diverse needs, and use all of the resources available in the school. We also strongly encourage students to act as role models to their peers, especially when the commonality of their home language is so present in their school community.
