OUR MISSION

To provide rigorous bilingual instruction in English and Spanish that fosters academic excellence and cross-cultural competence.

We achieve this mission by: 

We implement our model of instruction with fidelity. Most students have two different teachers: a teacher for English and a teacher for Spanish. We provide a safe, comfortable and supportive school environment which also makes learning in a second language more successful.

We have high expectations for student growth and have a commitment to evidence-based instruction. We collect student data, upon which we make instructional decisions.
