Abstract	There is some disagreement among educators and theoreticians concerning the definition of bilingual education. The Department of Education of the State of New Mexico has set forth two plans designed to establish a clear position for any local school district in the matter of bilingual education. The first model, full acculturation, represents a transitional program which uses the child's language and culture as "conceptual bridges" for an all-English curriculum. This plan is not used to maintain and expand the home language or culture of the non-Anglo American community. The second model, language and cultural maintenance, has as its purpose the maintenance and further development of the non-English language and culture of the students. It offers a richer education for the English-speaking student, as well. The importance of community involvement is emphasized no matter which bilingual model is chosen. This report includes suggestions for curriculum components and four time and content models. (CFM)
