The School District of Monroe was able to start the Elementary Spanish Program after receiving a grant from Colony Brands. Kindergarten students at all elementary schools have started their first unit, centered on the theme of how to introduce themselves to someone. They are also learning how to play culturally authentic games and how to take risks when it comes to their language skills.
