The start of the new school year today in St. Paul marks the opening of three Transitional Learning Centers. District officials created the centers in response to the latest wave of Hmong immigrants moving to the city. Como Park, Hayden Heights and Phalen Lake will serve up to 125 students each in the short-term program. But the district still doesn't doesn't know how many kids will show up. Superintendent Pat Harvey says some of the students who lived in a Thailand refugee camp have little formal education. She says they need a program that provides basic information.

Funders

In 2008, Minnesota's voters passed the Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment to the Minnesota Constitution: to protect drinking water sources; to protect, enhance, and restore wetlands, prairies, forests, and fish, game, and wildlife habitat; to preserve arts and cultural heritage; to support parks and trails; and to protect, enhance, and restore lakes, rivers, streams, and groundwater.

Efforts to digitize this initial assortment of thousands of historical audio material was made possible through the Minnesota Legacy Amendment’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. A wide range of Minnesota subject matter is represented within this collection.
