When the roof of their old school fell in, Xavier and his friends are transferred to a newer school at the edge of the city. They wondered if a group of Spanish speaking kids from the farm lands of the west county would get along in the new place. Xavier had driven by it a few times with his father and it looked like a big white castle surrounded by gardens. What were the students like? Xavier hoped that they weren't creepy or mean like the tricky Jones boys on the Kid's Network. Cuando se cay el techo de su vieja escuela, Xavier y sus amigos fueron transferidos a una escuela nueva en el borde de la ciudad. Se preguntaban si un grupo de ni os de habla hispana de las tierras agr colas de la provincia al oeste pudiera llevarse bien en el nuevo lugar. Xavier hab a pasado por alli un par de veces con su padre y parec a un gran castillo blanco rodeado de jardines. C mo ser an los estudiantes? Xavier esperaba que no fueran tan dif ciles como los chicos malos Jones del Kid's Network. Ronald Lemley Macias is a bilingual teacher who grew up in Northern California.
