Dual Language
We offer a choice of a Dual Language program for students in UTK-5th grade. We teach a 90/10 program in Kindergarten. Instruction is taught 90% of the day in Spanish, 10% of the day in English. As students progress through the grade levels the allocation changes. In 1st grade students receive 80/20 instruction, 2nd grade students receive 70/30 instruction, 3rd 60/40 instruction, 4th-5th grade 50/50 instruction. Students interested in participating in our Dual Language program may be assessed prior to entering and proficiency is used to determine best placement. Students may not enter the program after 1st grade.
Families will need to sign a Commitment Letter at the beginning of entering the Dual Language Program
