The 1973 report evaluates the Bilingual Education Program of Harlandale Independent School District. The bilingual program is designed for Spanish speaking pupils in grades K-5 (1,517 children in 8 of the district's 15 elementary schools) who have limited English-speaking ability. The 1972-73 project involved (1) development and revision of curriculum materials; (2) bilingual instruction in K-5; (3) preservice and inservice training of bilingual teachers and aides; (4) supervision of bilingual student teachers and student interns; (5) involvement of bilingual parents in their children's education; (6) increased community support for bilingual education; and (7) coordination of the cooperative efforts of 2 school districts and a teacher-training institution--Harlandale Independent School District, San Marcos Independent School District, and Southwest Texas State University. The 31 tables give results of tests used to evaluate the bilingual program--e.g., Peabody Picture Vocabulary Tests, Metropolitan Achievement Test, Prueba de Lectura, BEP Test in Social Studies and Science, Allocation of Time in Language Teaching (English and Spanish), and Inferred Self-Concept Scores. Eight recommendations are also included--e.g., the coordinator should emphasize to teachers the need to develop both English and Spanish reading comprehension.
