Spanish Immersion Program Comes to Canyon Crest

                                                                                                                    

Hola Canyon Crest! 

    We are happy to announce that a new Spanish Immersion program will begin at Canyon Crest next fall.  I was notified on January 4th that our grant had been accepted.  The program will start in first grade next August.  We received one of ten grants given to schools across the state by the Utah State Office of Education, and we are thrilled to have been chosen.

    We will hold an information meeting on Wednesday, February 17th at 7:00 p.m. in the Canyon Crest library.  All interested people are encouraged to attend.  Applications will be available at the meeting, and they can also be picked up after that in the Canyon Crest office.  They will also be available on our web site.

    

    As a major world language, Spanish is spoken by a growing number of people in our community, state and nation.  Wherever our students go, in or out of Utah, fluency in Spanish will open doors to them and give them greater access to the world.  It will also help them become better citizens of the world.  As speakers of Spanish, our students will be prepared to take their places in a global economy.  More information will be coming in the next few months.  Gracias
