Immersion Programs
PPS has several Language immersion programs. These include one for Mandarin Chinese at Woodstock Elementary, and a Spanish Immersion program at Atkinson Elementary. The Mandarin Chinese program feeds to Hosford Middle School, which in turn feeds to Cleveland High School. The Atkinson Spanish Immersion program feeds to Mt. Tabor Middle School and then Franklin High School. Beach, Clarendon-Portsmouth (now, Cesar Chavez School) and Ainsworth Elementary Schools all have Spanish Immersion programs as well, which feed to Lincoln High. There is also a Japanese Immersion program which runs through Richmond Elementary, Mt. Tabor Middle School, and Grant High School.

Famous quotes containing the word programs:
“Government ... thought [it] could transform the country through massive national programs, but often the programs did not work. Too often they only made things worse. In our rush to accomplish great deeds quickly, we trampled on sound principles of restraint and endangered the rights of individuals.”
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
