My overall evaluation of the Providence program is that it is beneficial. productive. innovative. and highly promising. I urge that it be continued. but with a few modifications. First. there should be more adequate quarters in which to teach. I found that cramped quarters in the schools limited the effectiveness and the potential of the program. Second. there are insufficient funds for supplementary eipenses. In one situation there were no funds to provide basic language books for beginning students who were recent immigrants. This lack of material should be remedied and I suggest a special fund be set up for basic supplies and materials. These suggestions for modification.
