Hola CILC


MissJiovanazzo and Rabatin’s classes started a 6 week series of Spanish lessons with the CILC in Indianapolis. Research shows that the earlier we introduce a language the better. Learning a language is a powerful strategy to help children gain an appreciation for diversity and the world outside their everyday life. It is also a wonderful way for Spanish speaking ELL students to learn English and feel supported as their classmates are learning their language.

This program will be followed up by a series of connections with the Avon HS Spanish classes. We look forward to see our student’s progress.
