I am taking away the definition of language and how it is looked at in the schools. In our school language consists of Yup'ik, Village English, and English in the academics and standards. Stakeholders are all involved in the process of creating a language program that districts implement. Language that requires translation have limited resources in the curriculum and translations are expensive and harder to create for the Yup'ik language in our YK region. Even though English written materials are readily available they are still difficult to gather and evaluate the relevancy of the materials.
My question is what are the views on education our current candidates for the President of the United States are and how will that affect education for Americans?
How can I involve stakeholders in the process of making language an important issue for our language program when the stakes are high for proficiency in English in our national standards?
