German/English Dual Immersion Program

In Elementary grade levels (kindergarten through fifth grade) students receive 50% of instruction in German and 50% in English, including all core subjects.

German and English instruction rotates weekly and is continuous. In this model an academically challenging learning environment is provided which brings children of two different language groups together to learn from and with each other in an integrated setting.

Middle School grade levels (sixth through eighth) have opportunities to take German or Spanish language classes.
