ABAC BANGLA SCHOOL (Now, with music and dance classes added!)

SPRING 2008 SEMESTER INFORMATION COMING SOON.

For Fall 2007 semester information, please click here.

The ABAC Bangla School meets every Sunday (except pre-announced holidays), between 2:30 PM and 5:00 PM. The classes meet in two separate groups -- for beginners and advanced students. In addition, instructions are customized to the individual student's capabilities and aptitude. In addition to teaching reading and writing in Bengali, the school also delivers instructions on recitation of Bengali poetry, singing of Bengali songs, and the practice of traditional and classical dances.

In an effort to go beyond simply teaching children how to read and write in Bengali, the ABAC Bangla School is working on compiling a library of children's Bengali literature, hoping to introduce the children to the rich arena of Bengali literature for children and adolescents.

The ABAC Bangla school thrives on excellent on-stage performances by its students on a regular basis. At least two major annual shows and numerous small gatherings allow the students to display their acquired skills to their parents and the community at large.
