Abstract	In it's first year, Project Aprendizaje served 250 students from the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico at Seward Park High School in Manhattan (New York). Project objectives were to improve participants' language skills in Spanish and English, help participants successfully complete content area courses needed for graduation, and provide career orientation and skills to help participants enter the work force or higher education. Instruction was provided in English as a Second Language (ESL), native language arts (NLA), mathematics, global history, American government, advanced Spanish, and occupation and computer/business technology. The project met its objectives in ESL, student attendance, advanced Spanish, keyboarding, staff development, suspension rate, and extracurricular activities. Data were not appropriate to evaluate the NLA objective, and sample size was too small to evaluate one career advancement objective. Development of upper level curricula, using a mastery learning approach, to increase language capabilities before mainstreaming is recommended. (MSE)
