Does your child speak more than one language? Castlebay and LAUSD value biliteracy and celebrate it through the Pathway to Biliteracy Awards. Students in TK, Kindergarten, 1st grade, 3rd grade, and 5th grade are eligible for this award.
During the week of October 6 and 13, the Multilingual Multicultural Education Department (MMED) is offering a series of informational webinars to help families learn more about the awards. Please see the attached flyer for information to join.
To nominate your child, please complete the nomination form here:

Assessments will take place later in the school year. For 3rd and 5th grade students, eligibility includes demonstrating the ability to read and write in English and their second (or third) language. Reading Logs will be available for participating students once nominated.
We encourage you to take part in this wonderful opportunity to celebrate your child’s multilingualism.
