Ten alums of the Dual Language Program who graduate from high school this weekend visited their former teachers last Friday to present them with gifts: a plant to represent growth and a copy of Pablo Neruda’s “Book of Questions” in English and Spanish.
The students also received special Dual Language Program cords that they will wear at graduation. All but one will graduate from Albany High School.
Besides catching up, the alums had a chance to see the new space at Edmund J. O’Neal School of Excellence, where the Dual Language Program now lives.
The soon-to-be high school graduates who visited were Oscar Amay, Georgianna Bamberger, Montany Belfort, Scarlett Carrera, Ingrid Colafati, Sofia Garcia Galagarza, Erick Gotay, Selena Lora, Jeremy Rosario (graduating from Colonie Central) and Isamaira Santiago.
Take a look at some Facebook photos from the visit. (You don't need a Facebook account to see the pictures linked in the highlighted text. A window may appear that says, “To see more from Albany City Schools on Facebook, log on or create an account,” but you can dismiss it by clicking “not now.”)
