Completing Level 2A is not required to enroll in Level 2B, depending on the student's knowledge of Spanish, and the teacher's discretion.

​

Literacy: For our TK-1st grade students, these classes are beginning level classes that focus on learning to read and prepare your child for a dual immersion program or help your child thrive in their current program.  For students in 2nd grade and up, these classes focus on reading to learn and are designed for current/former dual immersion students and/or native or fluent Spanish speakers.  All of our literacy classes focus on reading fluency, comprehension, writing, and grammar.
