DUAL ACADEMIC PROGRAM

Our elementary school students (Kinder 1 to 6th grade) receive bilingual instruction in a dual immersion program. Before entering primary school (1st grade) they attend a special pre-1st grade to develop their dual language proficiency. Our high school students are enrolled in a full dual program, receiving both a U.S. diploma and a Mexican bachillerato (high school certificate).  All of their classes are taught in English except for one Spanish language arts and one Mexican social studies class per school year (Mexican History, Geography, Law or Civics). Our graduates speak both English and Spanish fluently.
