After-School Programs
Many Seattle Public Schools offer after-school tutoring for
bilingual students who need additional help with English or their
school work. Bilingual Instructional Assistants or tutors who speak
the student's language may also be assigned to assist struggling
students. In addition, many community organizations run
after-school programs for immigrant students. Check with your
child's school or teacher about after-school programs in your
school or neighborhood.
Summer School for Bilingual Students
Bilingual Student Services runs a five-week half-day summer school
program to help students continue their immersion in English and
the academic curriculum. Transportation is provided, and usually
breakfast and lunch are served. Partnerships with community
organizations help provide after-school activities, including field
trips, arts and crafts, computer lab, and community service
projects.
