Bilingual education in Georgia: World Language Academy in Georgia.


Article by Dan Carsen for PRI, about World Language Academy in Georgia.

Here you can read an excerpt:

«She’s learned a lot about cultures and about bilingual education since then. Her students’ (and the whole school's) test scores are very good, even though the tests are in a language in which her kids are taught just half the time:

“My students are on third-grade reading levels here, but they’ve only really gotten half of their day in [English], and they’re still meeting – actually more or less exceeding – where they’re supposed to be,” she says.»
