Eskuelan San Francisco
St. Francis Catholic School
The Kumisión has engaged in a long-term partnership with Saint Francis Catholic School to develop a CHamoru-English dual language school model for Guåhan. The goal is to increase the use of CHamoru among both students and teachers at the SFCS site and to pilot strategies for transforming their English-only medium of instruction into a bilingual approach. The partnership aims to transform SFCS into a CHamoru learning organization, where students, families, teachers, administrators, and staff increasingly learn and use CHamoru in classroom instruction and all forms of communication throughout the school.
