Implementation
Guide
This guide is designed to provide information that should
help schools and districts implement the Texas Middle School Program
for AP* Spanish in their schools. The
content of the guide is based on the wisdom and experiences
of the committed teachers and administrators who originally
piloted the program in their districts and schools. In early
2004, participants from each of the original
pilot and scale-up sites got together to revise a draft
version of this guide so that other educators could benefit
from their experience in establishing programs for AP Spanish Language
at their middle schools.
While the administrators and teachers in these districts
have over the years created successful, now institutionalized
programs, they initially experienced the growing pains normal
to most fledgling ventures. This guide will help new program
staff be aware of potential challenges and address early implementation
issues.
