Are the children taught english in school? Does anyone know the demand and supply of bilingual books. I was just curious to know what they had to offer to the kids. ~~Rebecca

I'm not sure about the book supply/demand issue, but English is taught in the schools. Spanish is the official language for general courses in school and English is taught as a special subject from Kindergarten through High-School.
More information about Puerto Rico's (and Culebra's) schools can be found here:

Hi, 2 years ago I purchased many classic books (in spanish) for all ages at scholastic books and sent them down to Sister Theresa for the after school program. They were really appreciated. Let me know if you need any more info.
