Austrian Delegation visits CommuniKids DC

On Friday, Sept. 16, 2011, CommuniKids Preschool DC welcomed a diplomatic contingent from Austria.  Dr. Alexander Jandra and his colleagues visited us as part of a fact-finding mission about language immersion programs and societal integration.

Founder and Director of Curriculum Raul Echevarria welcomes Dr. Janda and the Austrian delegation to CommuniKids DC.  

Representatives from the Austrian delegation, the Center for Applied Linguistics, and CommuniKids discuss the way that language immersion programs can work to create global citizens.
