One point to consider in deciding whether to subtitle is that nowadays,
with the ease of computer publication, you can do both. You might, for example,
produce some monolingual copies for use in an immersion school and some
copies with subtitles for use by parents who don't know the language and
possibly for sale outside the community if you consider that appropriate and
want to try to generate some revenue that way.

Also, if you create on-line versions, you can initially present each page
monolingually but make it possible to request information in English,
e.g. the meaning of individual words or the translation of a sentence.
