The Winnipeg School division has set a new target
date for September 2016 to start a Spanish Bilingual Program pending sufficient
enrollment numbers.
The story in the Winnipeg Free Press on May 12th
was misleading and incomplete, calling the program “a bust”. After a recent meeting with the School Board
Chair, Mark Wasyliw, the Winnipeg School Division has reiterated its commitment
to the Spanish Bilingual program.
It will begin at Luxton School, located at
111 Polson Ave. in West Kildonan pending sufficient enrollment. Chief
Superintendent Pauline Clarke and Mark Wasyliw are dedicated to working with
Eugenia Lehmann, Kathy Heppner and the community to bring the Spanish Bilingual
program to reality in Winnipeg. The program will start with a combined
kindergarten and grade 1 class if there are 23 students willing to register.
For further information and to register call Eugenia Lehmann
at (204) 887-4572 or Kathy Heppner at WinnipegSpanishImmersion@gmail.com
