Dual Language Program
At Houston Elementary, we are very proud of our English/Spanish Dual Language Program offered to our PreK3 and PreK4 students. Additionally, we are the first school east of the river to provide a Dual Language Program.
Dual Language Education is an educational program in which students study grade level content in two languages. Students typically enter the program in the early years and develop reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills in a second language over the course of a number of years. The long-term goals of Dual Language education programs are:
-
Bilingualism
- Biliteracy
- High Academic Achievement
- Cultural competency
