I would like to commend writer Robert Penalber for highlighting the important Migrant Education Summer Institute in your first publication of the year.

Assistant Professor of Education Adonay Montes helped lead the Migrant Education Summer Institute, a one-month program that helps develop English-speaking skills for children of migrant workers, over the summer.

Adonay Montes, assistant professor of education, discussed how a new program is helping migrant Latino students overcome the social and academic challenges they face when starting school in America, Monday in the President’s Dining Room.
