SPRINGFIELD — The Springfield Public Schools have been awarded $75,000 to aid newcomer, multilingual and homeless students.
The grant will cover costs associated with welcoming these immigrant students and their families to the school environment.
“Every child deserves an equal opportunity to learn, and meeting them where they are with the services they need will only help them succeed and adapt to their new learning environment,” said state Sen. Adam Gomez, D-Springfield, in a statement.
