I think it's great that there are so many different languages being spoken in the st.cloud area schools. Not coming from the St.Cloud area, I didn't realize how diverse the community actually was. I also think it's wonderful that these schools offer the ELL program for students who didn't learn english as their first language. It's a great opportunity for students because they still get to be with their classmates and be in the mainstream classroom for the majority of the day. I think having a diverse variety of students is a great way to bring multicuturalism into our classrooms. This is yet another reason why we as teachers need to be educated about issues all over the world and bring multiculturalism into our classrooms.
