This New York City high school brings kids together from around the world and around the block, educating them despite language barriers.
in Manhattan, students come from all walks of life. "Many of our students have immigrated here from other parts of the world," says Kayla Hoglund, assistant principal of LES Prep. "Some students have immigrated here, they live on their own, they are working full-time," she adds., ABC Localish's Michael Koenigs had the opportunity to experience first-hand the different cultures through the hallways of this NYC high school.
For teachers like Qiyi Li, LES Prep is more than just a school. "I kind of want to help students to have a smoother change when they migrate to a new country because it's a different education system," says Qiyi Li. At age 20, Li migrated to the United States and was recommended to LES Prep High School. She now teaches at that same school she got her high school diploma.
LES Prep High School sends more than 80% of its graduates to college and demonstrates how students come together despite language barriers. Students hear over 36 languages while passing through its halls. "My father also attended this school and he learned English in this school," says Ms. Tan, a science, biology, and living environment teacher. "Now his daughter is teaching at the school where he learned English, he is so proud of it," she concluded.
