Welcome to year uno of Ann Arbor School District’s World Language program!

The Ann Arbor Language Partnership (A2LP) is a collaborative effort between the Ann Arbor School District and the Teacher Education Program at the University of Michigan School of Education. Our beliefs include a commitment to plurilingualism and language diversity, to learning in and beyond the classroom, and to the support of language-diverse students who are English learners in our schools.

For the 2012-2013  school year, apprentice teachers from the U of M are mentored by third and fourth grade classroom teachers for  60 minutes of learning each week.  Fifth grade students receive instruction each week from AAPS certified Spanish teachers for 60 minutes.  For more information, please refer to our World Language brochure on the district web site http://www.aaps.k12.mi.us in the Curriculum Resource section in Especially for Parents.  Other questions and comments may be directed to your child’s school principal.
