The PBS Newhour aired the following documentary about teaching immigrants in the Canadian school system titled "What the US could learn from Canada about integrating immigrant students"
From the PBS site "In Canadian public schools, the children of new immigrants do as well as native-born children within three years of arriving. There kids don't just get language and academic support; their home cultures are celebrated as they are integrated into classes. And strong social services and healthy education funding help too."
