To answer your question, many translations would have to be done as you can
see it for Spanish Bilingual Programs across the U.S (they have the major
textbooks translated to Spanish). It's a project that would require $$$ and
QUALIFIED Haitian educators /Translators. I am pretty sure there exist
already Haitians in the field who can do the job. It's just a matter of
MONEY TALK & POLITICS (will the school systems there spend the $$$ for the
job; do they care about the education of these Haitian youngsters? Do
Haitian educators there have a voic? A voice in politics?).
