Scope and Content Note

This series consists of VHS videocassettes documenting activities overseen by, or undertaken by, the Office of Bilingual Education and Foreign Language Studies (OBE/FLS). Many of the videotapes relate to the Angelo Del Toro Puerto Rican/Hispanic Youth Leadership Institute, an annual meeting sponsored by the OBE and the New York State Legislature to allow Hispanic youth in New York State to experience the legislative process.

Other videotapes are produced by regional BOCES to highlight their OBE-funded programs. Also present are orientation videos produced by the New York City Department of Education in 2003 for parents of English-language learners.
