Valley View Dual Language Immersion Program

Building Bilingual & Biliterate Scholars

At Valley View, we believe that being bilingual is a superpower!
 

Our Dual Language Immersion Program helps students become bilingual, biliterate, and bicultural by learning all academic subjects in Spanish and English over the course of six or more years.

How does it work?

  • Both Spanish and English are used as the medium of instruction, not just taught as separate language classes.
     
  • All core subjects are taught in Spanish in the early grades.
     
  • English instruction gradually increases each year.
     
  • Math is taught in Spanish in all grades (K–5).
     
  • By 5th grade, students receive instruction 50% in English and 50% in Spanish.
