WINONA, Minn. – A Spanish teacher at Winona High School, Susan Larsen, returned to Universidad de Salamanca in Spain to present a report on Winona’s Ríos Spanish immersion program. It had been 20 years since Larsen was last at the university. She discussed the Winona project in which students create and share books with students in Nicaragua. Since 2014, Winona language students have sent 197 of these books to Nicaragua.
