Me encanta Puesta porque aprendemos mucho Español, y eso me gusta porque ahora puedo hablar mucho más con mis abuelos en Perú.
My favorite thing about Puesta is that we learn a lot of Spanish, and I like that because now I can talk more with my grandparents from Peru.

Watching kindergarteners use basic programming skills to move robots is an experience that you can only get in the Bellevue School District. The high-quality educational opportunities that our students have access to is only possible through the support of the community. The Bellevue Schools Foundation has been the key community partner to fund educational innovation in a way you can't find anywhere else in the state, so our students learn the skills to be 21st century thinkers starting in preschool.
