About Our School
Two languages, one world.
We are a dual-language school. Walk our hallways and you'll hear Spanish and English; on the walls you'll see student essays and artwork in two languages, spanning a range of topics from our Common Core curriculum.
Research shows children's brains are most receptive to language in the elementary years, and we take full advantage — students who are bilingual and bicultural are well positioned to succeed and to understand the world around them.
