SchoolPower Endowment just presented its second installment of its $500,000 grant, of $50,000 a year for ten years, to support LBUSD foreign language goals and its vision to graduate more bilingual students. This year’s funding supported Elementary School Spanish. 4th and 5th graders are treated to a weekly lesson with the incomparable Señor Fritze, while 1st-3rd graders can get a head start with the After School Club Spanish program. Señor Fritze is reknowned for his use of the Total Physical Response method. It’s active, fun and extremely effective.
