Spanish Literacy Classes/ Clases de Alfabetizacíon

We are so excited about our Spanish Literacy classes and its growth in participants. We are so grateful to our teacher, Aracely Delgadillo, for all her enthusiasm and time she has put into the success of this program. These classes are available, free of charge,  to the Hispanic community. Participants are those that did not complete their elementary or junior high education and/or did not have an opportunity to learn basic reading skills. Once completed, participants will receive an official diploma from Mexico. They do not need to be from Mexico to participate. People ages 18 and over are encouraged to join us.
The classes are every Monday and Thursday at Dixon Middle School from 5-7 pm. Please call us at 801 655 0258 for more information.
