These countries are represented in my school this year - 50 of them. My students are privileged to learn from each other about all these cultures and traditions! We are indeed nurturing global leaders at ECGE! @ECGlobalElem #ECGESingingEagles @ocsculturalarts @OrangeCoSchools

My school and our PTA are wonderful!“I am kind, helpful, important” - in the many languages our families speak! Our children love coming in this door even more now!
