Kultural Enrichment & Language Program (KELP)

The Kultural Enrichment and Language Program (KELP) is a program
developed by Search To Involve Pilipino Americans (SIPA), is an
experiential learning program with an emphasis in Filipino language,
arts, and culture. The after-school program targets Filipino American
children in elementary grade levels 1-3.

The goal of the class is not only to teach the students Tagalog, but
also about the different facets of Philippine culture, art, history,
literature and geography. The program design follows the curriculum
standards adopted by the California State Board of Education for
elementary school levels.

The objective of the program is for the students to gain a deeper
awareness and understanding of their cultural heritage, thereby
strengthening their own identity as Filipino Americans. In addition,
their exposure to a culture other than the one they are entrenched in
will motivate them to learn more about the world around them and reach
their full potential as learners.
