Bilingual Education

At Schomburg Elementary we offer ENL support to our non-English speaking students. We have a Transitional Bilingual Education (TBE) in Spanish, where the students are immersed in the developing conceptual skills in their home language as they learn English.  As the students learn English the time in instruction of their home language decreases.  After the students achieve proficiency of the language, they are still given supports for the next two years to ensure their continued success.
