Dual Language
At Academia Ana Marie Sandoval, we strive to cultivate an atmosphere where an equitable and quality education is provided for the community that we serve. This includes a Spanish-speaking population as well as an English-speaking population.
In addition, by continuing to develop both English and Spanish, children’s educational and cognitive development is greatly enhanced. Learning in two languages provides students with access to two groups of literature, an opening up of different traditions, ideas, and ways of thinking which all lead to open-mindedness, flexibility, and an ability to think globally. We feel that children that pass through our doors leave with the strong foundation they need to live and work effectively in a world where cultural and linguistic boundaries are dissolving quickly.
