GABA Women in Business invites you to an inspiring evening exploring the opportunities and lifelong benefits of German-English bilingual education. \;How can families create a strong German-English educational pathway for their children\, and where can that journey lead? \;Join us as we explore the many ways children can develop and maintain their German language skills from the earliest years through higher education:

Home &rarr\; Preschool &rarr\; Elementary &\; Middle School &rarr\; Saturday School &rarr\; High School &rarr\; University

The evening will bring together educators\, parents\, and international education experts to discuss the different pathways available to German-English families in Los Angeles and beyond and \;will conclude with an audience Q&\;A and an opportunity to connect and network.
