3 Ways to Support Immigrant Students and Their Families

In this video, we explore the incredible opportunity schools and teachers have to welcome immigrant students and their families. While these students bring diverse experiences and knowledge to our classrooms, they also face challenges such as language barriers and cultural adjustment. Learn three impactful ways schools and teachers can support newcomer students, from understanding their backgrounds to providing practical resources like newcomer kits. Discover how fostering a welcoming school environment can empower newcomer students to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
