I am so happy I found this wonderful and inspiring group of Los Angeles parents that have gotten together to create a space to enhance the Spanish-language opportunities from children-toddlers to middle school age.

They meet every Sunday during the school year in an elementary school in Pasadena.  I met the two amazing teacher that are completely devoted to the children.

I highly recommend this as an option to immerse your children in Spanish and for them to make a beautiful group of friends (so will you!).

I´m pretty sure Camila will start this fall!!

We´ll actually write more about this and other heritage schools in the next month.

It´s not free, but it´s very, very affordable.  They need to pay for the teachers and materials.  What I loved about it was the community feeling since all the parents were there with the children in the classroom.  Everyone´s really involved and looking out for their bilingual futures.

I actually passed on your blog to the group´s contact:  Rey Rodriguez.  He´s an amazing man who wants to reach out and do more for bilingual education but it´s not his area of specialty.  I´ll be happy to hook you two up, that´s if  you haven´t already!

The LA Times published a great article about Grupo Educa and preserving our language and heritage.  You can read it here:  http://www.latimes.com/news/lo…..umn?page=1
