Give your child the gift of a Dual Language Immersion education!
Would you like your child to:
Your child can master both English and Spanish by 5th Grade!
In 2018-19, the Spanish Language Immersion program will encompass Preschool through Third Grade (Ages 2 through 8). Preschool is a full Spanish Immersion program, while TK-3 is a 50-50 model. Each year we will move forward improving our students and our communities through bilingual learning and cultural understanding. Ultimately, our students will be able to speak Spanish and English with sufficient structural accuracy and vocabulary to participate effectively in most formal and informal conversations, including business and professional. We combine bilingual education, intimate private school setting, and holistic values-based education. Visit us to find out why we are the best Spanish Immersion school in Los Angeles.
What is Dual Language Immersion?
In Dual Language Immersion, students spend half the day learning in English and half the day learning in Spanish. By being taught not just language fundamentals but academic subjects, students gain both languages while not losing a step in their studies. In addition, by speaking English and Spanish at an early age, our students are more likely to remember both languages forever. Dual Language Immersion addresses the needs of the 21st century world. You will see the benefits of Dual Language Immersion for native English and Spanish speakers alike. We are one of the only private Catholic Elementary Schools to offer Dual Language Immersion as well as one of the few to do so in California. This program adds to our educational plan, which offers our students a rich core academic curriculum as well as enrichment programs such as art, athletics, music and afterschool activities. A bilingual education is achievable for your child!
