Students in
Kindergarten are taught Spanish on a weekly basis, while 1st through 7th grade
students receive instruction twice each week. Students learn to read and write
in Spanish. English-speaking students
learn the fundamentals of a second language and Hispanic students develop their
reading and writing skills in Spanish, a language they know only as a spoken
tongue. Students not only learn the
language, but also a little of Spanish history, culture, and traditions.
