3/26/2014

Coral Way Bilingual Elementary School in Miami is considered the nation's first Spanish-English dual-language immersion program. Its unique history is intricately linked with Cuba's revolutionary past, as the first children to enroll in the program had left the island following Fidel Castro's rise to power.

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Coral Way (1963 - 1964 to 2013 - 2014), check out Richard Ruiz and Beth DeFarber's collection of interviews with teachers and students from the original class of 1963-1964. They have also compiled some interesting artifacts and photographs for this continuing project, which will grow over time. The collection includes: Primary source documents (26 items); an oral history collection (14 items); and photographs and memorobilia (104 items). The project is completely open access through the University of Arizona library website and can be accessed here. Worth checking out!

Thanks for sharing the article, and more importantly, your personal experience of mindfully using our emotions as data about our inner state and knowing when it’s better to de-escalate by taking a time out are great tools. Appreciate you reading and sharing your story since I can certainly relate and I think others can to
