ARCS is proud to participate again in the GiveBIG campaign, which supports WA-based non-profit organizations. This year we are raising funds to give more students the opportunity to learn about the Romanian culture and language. With your support we would like to offer more scholarships to students.
Our teaching methods are based on the core principles of Heritage Language Education that nourish bilingualism and address holisitically the bi-cultural identity of our students through project-based activities, play, authentic sources, critical thinking, and meaningful interactions with their families and communities. Our students gain pride and confidence as heritage language speakers and learners of Romanian, while developing a global understanding of the world. We also offer language classes for non-heritage speakers, especially adults.
Many of our high school students end up receiving the Global Seal of Biliteracy for their linguistic competency! Our comprehensive course catalog, together with our skilled instructors, provide students with the necessary tools to reach their goals.
GiveBIG takes place May 7-8, with early giving starting on April 23! Please mark your calendars and help us spread the gift of language!
