DUAL LANGUAGE IMMERSION PROGRAM

The Dual Language Immersion Program in Spanish (also known as Spanish Immersion Program) extends from kindergarten through fifth grade and has been running since the school opened in August 2008. Liberty Elementary was accepted in the International Spanish Academies (ISA) in 2013, joining the educational network sponsored by the Embassy of Spain.

Take a look at what is going on nationally with the immersion and partial immersion programs. "What Parents Want to Know about Foreign Language Immersion Programs” provides a starting point that may help you begin to understand what will be going on at Liberty.
