BILINGUALISM

Students begin the English and Spanish Dual Language Immersion Program (DLI) program in kindergarten. By 5th grade, students will be able to communicate bilingually in diverse teams and complex settings.

BILITERACY

Our DLI program provides students a unique opportunity to critically think, read, write and collaborate both in English and Spanish. 

BI-CULTURALISM

Students in the DLI program are immersed in building cross-cultural competencies and knowledge required of cultural and ethical leaders.
