Tiny Bus, Big Opportunities for Immigrant Kids


El Busesito, which means “the little bus” in English, operates four retrofitted buses that provide bilingual preschool education on wheels for Latino immigrant families in five neighborhoods. The free early childhood education has improved developmental progress and school readiness for the nearly 100 children it serves. Valley Settlement, the nonprofit that runs El Busesito, also offers family engagement programs for the communities.
