Dual Language education is an effective approach to developing language proficiency and literacy in English and Spanish. Two-Way Immersion dual language education, i.e., one day English one day Spanish, integrates native English speakers and native Spanish speakers for academic content instruction through both English and Spanish.
Bilingual and Dual Language programs promote bilingualism and biliteracy, grade-level academic achievement and cross-cultural competence in all students. Students maintain their native language while adding another language, and they develop pride in their own culture while developing an understanding of others.
