Jackson
Preparatory Magnet School is the first school in the Saint
Paul Public School
District to offer a K-3+ Hmong Dual Language Program.
The program is designed to mentor students  The
mission of the program is two-fold; to develop students who are bilingual,
biliterate and bicultural and to help students acquire English language skills
in a richer more complete manner. The program was established at the beginning
of the 2006-2007 school year with kindergarten and first grade classes. In
2007-2008 Pre-K and second grade was added to the program. In 2008-2009, 3rd grade was added. Now as we are in our fourth year of implementation, we have added 4th grade (2009-2010).  In Pre-K through 2 grade all core subject areas,
including reading, will be taught in Hmong by a licensed Hmong bilingual
teacher. Additionally, a portion of the day will be dedicated to English
language development. In grades 3-6 students will continue
to receive instruction in Hmong literacy while the rest of their day will be in
English. The Hmong materials used have been especially designed by the program
developers and staff.
