English Program Aids Migrant Kids in Ridge Spring
In Ridge Spring Monetta Elementary Middle School a summer program helps migrant children from the United States and parts of Mexico and Central and South America learn English. The theme Through the Garden Gate ties language to science and math about crops like peaches and tomatoes. Students 3 to 17 practice growing, measuring, and writing while teachers support those who speak English less fluently. Crystal Torres, 9, from Mexico, helps peers and aims to assist others who lack English skills.
