Dual Language

  • The dual language program offers a school within school approach to second language acquisition education.   The goal of the program is to provide students with the opportunity to become fully bilingual by learning, listening, speaking, reading and writing skills in English and the target language.  It is suggested that students start participating in the program in Kindergarten.  Students who participate in the program will continue in the program at the next grade level the following year.
