English, French, and Spanish are taught. Spanish is a foundational language, not a second language, and lives in classrooms, hallways, and conversations within a living Spanish-speaking community. The program is built for heritage speakers and new learners and aims for bilingual and trilingual fluency with native-speaking Spanish educators.
Full immersion bilingual environments are used in French/English or Spanish/English. Pre-school students learn French & English or Spanish & English depending on the chosen track. Starting in 5K/Kindergarten, students learn all three languages (French/Spanish/English) concurrently. By the 5th grade, students have near-fluency in all three languages.
French and Spanish immersion programs are offered for children aged 18 months through 5th Grade. In preschool, students follow a French/English or Spanish/English track; in 5K/Kindergarten, all three languages are taught concurrently. Each student has a teacher for each language they are learning.
Da Vinci International School (DVIS) is a non-denominational, international private preschool and elementary program for children from 18 months through 5th grade. It offers French and Spanish immersion with a trilingual pathway in English, French, and Spanish.
