RALEIGH, NC -- Jose Leyva has the creative touch of an artist and a mind
that's equally sharp. But the 13-year-olds' skills are hidden behind a
language barrier that makes it hard for the Mexican immigrant to express
himself in his North Raleigh classroom.

program called Dialogo-Conexion, run by the Latin American Resource
Center.
