Our Spanish Immersion program is designed to enrich the education of native-English-speaking students by teaching certain academic subjects in a second language. The goal is for students to become proficient in the second language and develop increased cultural awareness while reaching a high level of academic achievement. Students develop proficiency in the second language by hearing and using it to learn their school subjects rather than by studying the language itself.
In our immersion program, partial Immersion, the regular school curriculum is taught in the immersion language for at least half of the school day. Immersion teachers use a wide repertoire of instructional strategies as they cover the school district's curriculum.
