Dr. José Medina: Educational Solutions has supported the strengthening and alignment of the bilingual programs throughout the district with the implementation of the C6 Biliteracy Instructional Framework. With this ongoing collaboration and work, our teachers are planning and delivering lessons in both program languages that include content, language, and culture targets as well as creating learning environments that are linguistically and culturally sustaining. 

Dr. Medina’s integrity and honesty around his own experiences as an emergent bilingual and his extensive knowledge of research around dual language and experiences as both a teacher and administrator, is equipping all of our stakeholders with a deep understanding of practices that are key to the success of our students.  

It has been an honor to learn with and from Dr. José Medina the past 4 years at Dalton School Hong Kong. By leading and serving with authenticity, wisdom, and advocacy, Dr. Medina connects with educators in a way that few can. Much like one of his influences, Paulo Freire, Dr. Medina inspires and is unafraid to dismantle systems of oppression and build individuals and communities up through relationships and a spirit of service.
