According to Daisy Barocio, Principal of Escuela Popular Dual Language Academy, "I am excited for the Kidpower lessons and assignments because we need curriculum that is easy for busy teachers to prepare and use with a group of children. The assignments will be very important because they provide a way for the children to show their parents what they learned and also keep practicing at home with them. The fact that the lessons are in both English and Spanish is a big help since many of our students come from Spanish-speaking families."
