We broadcast our forum, taped earlier in the week at Manchester Central High School, on the immigrant and refugee experience in New Hampshire...as seen through the lens of education and ask what we have learned, where we are now and where we are headed in the future. Laura's guests are Christine Noon, Education Consultant for the New Hampshire Department of Education's English for Speakers of Other Languages Program (ESOL) and the English Language Learners Program (ELL) and June Rojas Tumblin, Department Head for the English Language Learners Program at Manchester Central High School. We'll also hear from John Rudolph, the man behind the documentary "Culture Lessons: Stories of Students at Manchester Central", Robert Cioppa, Director of ESL for the Nashua School District and two students from Manchester Central- Alena Golovnya from Russia and Igrain Fermait from Puerto Rico.
