Twentyfive percent of that money. with some flexibility with this new language. can be used for other methods of teaching limited English proficient. If one came with the first group. for instance. that came from Vietnam. immersion was the way to go because the parents of all those youngsters spoke English. If one was not fortunate enough to be in that wave and. let us say. came in during our most recent immigration and arrived here and did not even have any formal education at all in their own languageand most of our young people coming from many areas at the present time have had no formal education at all. nor did their parents--it makes it very. very difficult to meet that 3to5year transition period. if. as a matter of fact. we totally tried to immerse them. So again. repeating. it is a competitive grant program. School districts can reject it or accept it.
