Abstract	In its fourth year, the computer-Focused Russian Bilingual Instructional Program provided instructional and support activities to 276 Russian-speaking students, most of whom are limited English proficient, at 4 public and 2 private high schools in Brooklyn. Instructional activies varied by site. Public school students took English as a Second Language (ESL), native language arts (NLA) courses in Russian culture and literature, and content area (mathematics, science, and social studies) and business and vocational subjects taught bilingually or in English using ESL methodology. At private schools, the project offered individual and small-group tutorials in English and content areas. Additional program components included counseling, tutoring, vocational services, staff development, and parental involvement activities. The program met its objectives in ESL, NLA, content area subjects, and parental involvement, but did not provide sufficient data to assess the computer skills and student attitudes objectives. The project was found to be successful in providing English and native language instruction to recent Russian immigrants and in directly involving their parents or grandparents in activities.
