Additional Dual Language Immersion Information
What is dual language immersion? Dual language immersion is a program where students spend half of their elementary school day learning in English and the other half of their day learning in Chinese, French, Portuguese, or Spanish. All subjects are taught between the two languages (English and a second language). The program continues into junior high and high school with advanced language courses and opportunities. The goal is to maximize a student’s second language proficiency and develop their abilities to work successfully in multicultural settings. Please watch this video for more information.
How does my student get in the program? Because space is limited, enrollment is done using a lottery system. To be considered, you must complete the lottery application by 6 pm on Monday, January 31, 2024. Students may apply for the lottery at multiple schools by completing an application for each school that they are interested in attending. Please see this document to apply.
Additional Information The lottery application opens on December 18, 2023 and closes on January 31, 2023 at 6:00 pm. Applications must be submitted during this window. A list of the immersion schools and any planned parent meetings can be found here. Information about the application and selection process can be found here with additional information on our district website.
