French and English are the languages of instruction. Spanish is offered as a World Language in Fifth Grade. The bilingual approach supports seamless switching between languages.
The bilingual approach integrates both French and English. The English and French programs are often aligned to study the same ideas, read the same books, and use the same tools, with bilingual switching encouraged rather than translation. Preschool through elementary instruction provides daily immersion in both languages. Spanish is introduced as a third language in Preschool.
LIH provides daily immersion in French and English from Preschool onward. The Preschool program immerses children in both languages throughout the day. In upper grades, instruction continues in both languages as part of the bilingual program. Spanish is introduced as a third language in Preschool, and is taught as a World Language in Fifth Grade.
