    Our vision: Empowering our students to reach for academic achievements as bilingual, bi-literate, and bicultural global leaders in a multicultural society. 

    "Excelencia y Orgullo"

    What is Dual Language?

    • Your child will learn how to read, write, and speak in both English and Spanish. 
    • Classrooms are comprised of both Spanish speakers and English speakers.
    • At the early grade levels, Spanish is used for most of the student’s instructional day, gradually increasing the amount of English instruction until students receive half of the instruction in each language by 3rd grade.
    • The native language and culture of each student are valued and honored to promote a multicultural community in the school.
