Abstract	This case describes St. Lucy School, a K-8 elementary school in a mid-sized urban center. St. Lucy has traditionally served African American students. In the past 10 years, the neighborhood has experienced a significant shift in population, such that many Latino/a families are now entering the school. In response to these changes, the school administration made the decision to transition into a fully bilingual school. As the school has begun to treat the Spanish language as an asset, however, tensions have arisen regarding why African American English (AAE) has not been--nor is currently--treated as an asset as well. In addition, there are tensions around the varieties of Spanish used, revealing different attitudes and beliefs about non-standard varieties of Spanish. (As Provided).
