What is a DLI Education?
Dual Language Immersion (DLI) teaches literacy and content in two languages and prepares students with 21st century skills combined with a global awareness and developed worldview.
Dual Language Education consists of both Two Way and One Way Bilingual programs. These programs are considered “additive” models of Bilingual Schooling for English Learners. An additive program refers to a program structure where students continue to develop cognitively in their first language as they acquire their second language.
Two Way: Two language groups taught through their two languages
One Way: One language group taught through their two languages
Through collaboration among students, staff, and families, we will build upon our students’ creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and communication skills to produce well rounded life long learners who are socially responsible and prepared for college, careers, and their future in their ever changing century.
Through our intentional efforts towards student achievement, we will continue to ensure students learn at high levels, develop socially and emotionally. Together we will Empower, Inspire, and Unite our efforts to maximize student potential.
