LSI Team Examining the Educational Experiences of Refugee Families in Tallahassee

This past January, Learning Systems Institute (LSI) Director Rabieh Razzouk awarded a new LSI SEED grant to Dr. Celia Reddick, Julie Twomey, M.Ed. and Dr. Brenda Wawire. The proposal facilitates the first systematic study of the educational experiences of refugee students, their families and teachers in Tallahassee. During the first six months of the project, 36 interviews were conducted with refugees from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Syria.
