Westside Mandarin Immersion Efforts Continue
A lot of you have heard that there is a group of folks pushing Portland Public Schools to create a second Mandarin Immersion program within the PPS boundaries. We’re hoping to get a school established on the Westside of Portland. Talks on this effort have been going on for 2 years and we’re hoping to see some results this year.
We would like to get as many parents interested in the creation of a second Mandarin Immersion school to sign the petition found on the effort’s website http://chinese.weareahappyfamily.com./ The more names we can get signed up the more PPS will listen to us. So if you haven’t done so already, and you would like to see another Mandarin 1/2 day Immersion program established, please sign your name to the website.
You’ll also be adding your e-mail to the list so you can receive updates on the efforts and stay in the loop.
