  • Youth Programs for Immigrant Students

    YOUTH PROGRAM - KANDELIA'S YOUTH PROGRAMS ARE BASED OUT OF SEATTLE WORLD SCHOOL, A SCHOOL WITHIN THE SEATTLE PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR NEWLY ARRIVED IMMIGRANT AND REFUGEE STUDENTS. BY PARTNERING WITH THE SCHOOL, WE PROVIDE CLASSES AND ACTIVITIES THAT HELP STUDENTS ACHIEVE ACADEMIC SUCCESS AND GAIN SKILLS AND CONFIDENCE TOWARDS SELF-SUFFICIENCY AND THEIR GOALS BEYOND HIGH SCHOOL. CLASSES INCLUDE ENGLISH CONVERSATION, HOMEWORK HELP, SOCCER, ART, DANCE, AND MANY OTHERS DEPENDING ON THE INTEREST OF STUDENTS. THESE CLASSES HELP STUDENTS INCREASE ENGLISH PROFICIENCY (OUR STUDENTS ARE ALMOST ALL ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS), LEARN NEW SKILLS, AND BUILD A COMMUNITY OF FRIENDS AND PEERS.
