“Na’a sakuaú Inglés au Computadores?"
That is the language of Mixteco and it is asking "Would you like to learn English and Computers?" Our evening classes through the OSYA will continue into 2010-2011 school year. This is a much needed educational option for the increasing population of indigenous migrant youth in our district who are unable to attend school during the day. These OSY must work in the fields in order to survive, therefore they struggle to attend a day program, often without success.
All OSYA students have four things in common; 1.) They have very little experience in school 2.) They speak a Oaxacan indigenous language at home (usually Mixteco) 3.) They have a very high desire to learn, and, 4.) They need to work in the fields during the day in order to survive.
