From the Immersion Director
Spring break is often a time where children find unique opportunities to use their immersion language. If this is true for your child or family, whether it is a simple chance encounter with a Spanish or Mandarin speaker or a week of intentional language immersion, I’d love to hear your stories so that we can celebrate the positive impact of bilingualism.

– Bible Verse Memory

Mateo 28:1-6

Después del sábado, al amanecer del primer día de la semana, María Magdalena y la otra María fueron a ver el sepulcro.

Sucedió que hubo un terremoto violento, porque un ángel del Señor bajó del cielo y, acercándose al sepulcro, quitó la piedra y se sentó sobre ella. Su aspecto era como el de un relámpago, y su ropa era blanca como la nieve. Los guardias tuvieron tanto miedo de él que se pusieron a temblar y quedaron como muertos.

El ángel dijo a las mujeres:

—No tengan miedo; sé que ustedes buscan a Jesús, el que fue crucificado. No está aquí, pues ha resucitado, tal como dijo. Vengan a ver el lugar donde lo pusieron.
