Our wonderful Language Ambassadors (LAs) will be teaching the students about their culture & assisting the classroom teachers, all while speaking Spanish to our children with their Paraguayan, Argentinean, Colombian and Spanish accents!  The LAs work part time, unpaid internships at ISLA.

They will each be living with two host families while in Minnesota and welcome contact from ALL ISLA families. Maybe you would like to invite them over to dinner? Take them to the lake? To a Vikings game? Show them your garden? They have their own spending money and can pay their own way, so please do not rule your family out because you do not have a lot of money or a big house!  You may contact them directly to make arrangements.

If you have any questions about being a host family or anything else about the LA's, please contact the ISLA PTO LA Coordinator, Corey Halls at corey.halls@gmail.com or 952-929-9639.
