Searles Elementray Two Way Dual Immersion Program

Searles Elementary School's Two-Way Dual Language (TWDL) program was established in 2018. Our program fosters bilingualism, biliteracy, enhanced awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity, and high levels of academic achievement through instruction in two languages. The model of delivery at the Kindergarten and First Grade level is 80% in Spanish and 20% in English. The percentage in English will increase by ten percent each year after first grade.

Our District offers Two-Way Dual Language Pathways. One is Spanish at Searles Elementary and the other in Mandarin at Guy Emanuele Elementary. Please contact Angelica Singson at (510) 471-1100 ext. 60493 for program and enrollment information.
