Lawmakers Look at English Learner Education

Dear Parents,
Many of you have children who are learning the English language. In kindergarten, many of our students are referred to the English Language Development Center. Cupertino offers this support program which is critical to our students' needs, growth and confidence.
As parents of English Learners, the best thing you can do is educate yourselves on English learner educational policies.
Here's a report I heard this morning. I encourage you to listen to it.

Dr. Seuss Day

Dr. Seuss Day was a tremendous success. We celebrated this on March 2nd which is also called, Read Across America Day. All week, we read Dr. Seuss books, created art inspired by Dr. Suess characters, did Dr. Suess activities and even had Officer Holly from Sunnyvale Police Department come and read us The Cat in the Hat.
I can't emphasize enough how important these stories are for young, developing readers. I myself learned to read with Dr. Seuss and I'm sure some of you did as well. Here are some pictures from our fun and exciting week.
