R&D: Welcoming Immigrant Students with a High-Quality Education
Lee, Stacey J.; Walsh, Daniel
Phi Delta Kappan, v97 n4 p46-50 Dec 2015-Jan 2016
The Internationals Network for Public Schools has a reputation for engaging in culturally and linguistically responsive pedagogy with immigrant youth. The 19 schools in the internationals school network serve the unique academic and emotional needs of recently arrived immigrant youth who are English language learners. INPS schools are in New York, California, and the Washington, D.C., area. Students in the network come from over 100 countries, speak over 90 languages, have diverse educational backgrounds and about 90% are eligible for free or reduced-price meals. From the Internationals, we can learn what constitutes a high-quality education for immigrant students and what teachers can do to provide a high-quality education for immigrant youth.
