    Additional Information

    Ms. Tori Corpas, our immersion JK/K English classroom teacher, will be transferring
    from her current role as a first grade teacher at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. School. She
    grew up in Yonkers, New York. She received her Bachelor of Arts in English with a
    minor in Communications and her M.A.T. from Tufts University. Currently, she is on the
    Instructional Leadership Team Committee at the King School and is enrolled in the
    Aspiring Teacher Leader Program for Mathematics. Ms. Corpas is an energetic and
    creative educator with a firm belief in helping children to reach their full potential. She
    has enjoyed the last five years at the King School and is enthusiastic about extending
    world-class learning opportunities to all children in the City of Cambridge.

    We are currently in the process of hiring the potential lead teacher in the Chinese
    classroom. Stay tuned for more information.

    All students in the King and Amigos schools shared the same teachers in the following
    academic subjects: arts, music, physical education, and library.

    All students, if needed, receive additional academic and developmental supports.

    The Immersion Coordinator and curriculum consultants are collaborating with King
    School’s onsite Math and Literacy coaches to develop a streamline curriculum to ensure
    literacy and content mastery in both the Chinese and English classrooms.
