  • Students will remain in the program until 5th grade

  • There will be two teachers; one who teaches in English and one who teaches in Spanish

  • One of the main goals of the program is that students are completely biliterate in both languages (reading, speaking, and writing)

Student Enrollment Criteria:

  • Students must ballot by February 27th, 2023 to be entered into the lottery.
