every aspect of the word The more individuals that can speak more than two languages
and understand the cultural variances between languages the more we can become a
country that avoids cultural and linguistic misunderstandings Parents need to teach their
children the importance of embracing and maintaining their own language and culture
while learning additional languages Always remember who you are and where you come
fromrdquo

Playing the marimba has been a family tradition for the Olais women It began in the late 70rsquos with three sisters learning through the City of Fresno Parks and Rec-reation Department and continued with private lessons and influences from well known local mariachimusic instructors Tony Manjarrez Danny Fraijo and also through the Roosevelt School of the Arts Marimba Band instructed by Steve Al-cala Today we are passing down this tradition to our children in hopes that it will carry on for years to come
We play a purely instrumental eclectic repertoire of songs which resonate beauti-fully from this amazing instrument from cumbias to polkas to corridos to boleros Our unique style spotlights the melody of a song on the high register of the instru-ment while following the undertone of the bass line
Performances range from private parties weddings dinner meetings fairs and music festivals Contact Lucia Olais-Macias for future hiring at olais2ma-ciassbcglobalnet or at 559-905-2142

Escuela Normal de Los Angeles
I expect that I am the last remaining alumnus of the old Spanish Escuela Normal de Los Angeles I attended there in
1863 when I was eleven years of age and was one of the youngest students in the school I was in the school until 1865
The school closed just after I left If any others of those students still are living [1936] they probably are ninety or more
years of age
The Principal of the old school was Sr Juan Manuel Silvas of Concepcion Chile The second in rank was Candido Fraijo of
Spain and the third was Francisco Escanillo from Andalucia Spain Understand theirs was not a church school It was a
tuition school They taught us French Spanish English Italian mathematics and bookkeeping Our parents paid three
hundred dollars a year for our board lodging and instruction
School was held where the southeast corner of Main and Castelar streets are now three or four blocks east of the old
church on the Plaza

ldquoIn our research findings the program with the highest long-term academic success is the
two-way dual language educationrdquo [page 52]
ldquoStudents who receive at least five to six years of dual language schooling in the US reach the 50th
NCEpercentile in English by fifth to eighth grade and maintain that level of performance because
they have not lost any years of schoolingrdquo [page 83]

Escuela Normal de Los Angeles
I expect that I am the last remaining alumnus of the old Spanish Escuela Normal de Los Angeles I attended there in
1863 when I was eleven years of age and was one of the youngest students in the school I was in the school until 1865
The school closed just after I left If any others of those students still are living [1936] they probably are ninety or more
years of age
The Principal of the old school was Sr Juan Manuel Silvas of Concepcion Chile The second in rank was Candido Fraijo of
Spain and the third was Francisco Escanillo from Andalucia Spain Understand theirs was not a church school It was a
tuition school They taught us French Spanish English Italian mathematics and bookkeeping Our parents paid three
hundred dollars a year for our board lodging and instruction
School was held where the southeast corner of Main and Castelar streets are now three or four blocks east of the old
church on the Plaza

ldquoIn our research findings the program with the highest long-term academic success is the
two-way dual language educationrdquo [page 52]
ldquoStudents who receive at least five to six years of dual language schooling in the US reach the 50th
NCEpercentile in English by fifth to eighth grade and maintain that level of performance because
they have not lost any years of schoolingrdquo [page 83]

Escuela Normal de Los Angeles
I expect that I am the last remaining alumnus of the old Spanish Escuela Normal de Los Angeles I attended there in
1863 when I was eleven years of age and was one of the youngest students in the school I was in the school until 1865
The school closed just after I left If any others of those students still are living [1936] they probably are ninety or more
years of age
The Principal of the old school was Sr Juan Manuel Silvas of Concepcion Chile The second in rank was Candido Fraijo of
Spain and the third was Francisco Escanillo from Andalucia Spain Understand theirs was not a church school It was a
tuition school They taught us French Spanish English Italian mathematics and bookkeeping Our parents paid three
hundred dollars a year for our board lodging and instruction
School was held where the southeast corner of Main and Castelar streets are now three or four blocks east of the old
church on the Plaza

Dual Language
ldquoIn our research findings the program with the highest long-term academic success is the
two-way dual language educationrdquo [page 52]
ldquoStudents who receive at least five to six years of dual language schooling in the US reach the 50th
NCEpercentile in English by fifth to eighth grade and maintain that level of performance because
they have not lost any years of schoolingrdquo [page 83]

I expect that I am the last remaining alumnus of the old Spanish Escuela Normal de Los Angeles I attended there in
1863 when I was eleven years of age and was one of the youngest students in the school I was in the school until 1865
The school closed just after I left If any others of those students still are living [1936] they probably are ninety or more
years of age
The Principal of the old school was Sr Juan Manuel Silvas of Concepcion Chile The second in rank was Candido Fraijo of
Spain and the third was Francisco Escanillo from Andalucia Spain Understand theirs was not a church school It was a
tuition school They taught us French Spanish English Italian mathematics and bookkeeping Our parents paid three
hundred dollars a year for our board lodging and instruction
School was held where the southeast corner of Main and Castelar streets are now three or four blocks east of the old
church on the Plaza

Escuela Normal de Los Angeles
I expect that I am the last remaining alumnus of the old Spanish Escuela Normal de Los Angeles I attended there in
1863 when I was eleven years of age and was one of the youngest students in the school I was in the school until 1865
The school closed just after I left If any others of those students still are living [1936] they probably are ninety or more
years of age
The Principal of the old school was Sr Juan Manuel Silvas of Concepcion Chile The second in rank was Candido Fraijo of
Spain and the third was Francisco Escanillo from Andalucia Spain Understand theirs was not a church school It was a
tuition school They taught us French Spanish English Italian mathematics and bookkeeping Our parents paid three
hundred dollars a year for our board lodging and instruction
School was held where the southeast corner of Main and Castelar streets are now three or four blocks east of the old
