Spanish after-school classes now open for enrollment

Posted

Registration for the fall semester of the Language Exploration Enrichment (LEE) after-school Spanish program is now open. 

LEE’s mission is to encourage students to explore world languages and cultures and to give donors an opportunity to invest in the future of children. A fun, intensive, literacy-based language instruction, LEE prepares students for middle and high school Spanish. The classes meet for 15 weeks, once a week for 90 minutes. Classes meet right after dismissal.

Students are grouped based on their age and proficiency in the language. Classes are taught by experienced, native Spanish-speaking instructors. There is a formal lesson plan with assessments and an end of semester fiesta. LEE students have been recognized statewide as Spanish Scholars for the last 11 years.

The after school Spanish classes are offered to all regular and extended day students at the following 16 St. Johns County elementary school locations: Cunningham Creek, Durbin Creek, Hickory Creek, Julington Creek, Ketterlinus, Liberty Pines Academy, Mill Creek, Ocean Palms, Palencia, Patriot Oaks Academy, Picolata Crossing, PVPV-Rawlings, R.B. Hunt, Timberlin Creek, Valley Ridge Academy and Wards Creek. Net proceeds benefit the participating schools.
