Bilingual Education

Bilingual Education

A Bilingual Education program of instruction that provides for learning basic skills in

the primary language of the students. The elementary school bilingual education

program is implemented through a Dual Language immersion/one way model. This

is a model through which students identified as English learners are served in both

English and another language (Spanish).



The goal of the one-way dual language immersion is for

students to attain full proficiency in their native language as

well as English.

proficiency in English to participate equitably in school.
