Spanish Immersion Program
​
The Spanish Immersion program is designed for English-speaking students who wish to become fluent in Spanish. The goals of the program is for students to develop the ability to communicate in Spanish on a level similar to that of a student the same age who is a native Spanish speaker. VCS offers this program from 3 months to kindergarten.
​
Dual Language Program
​
Our Dual Language program is designed based on the Spanish Immersion program. Beginning in first grade a 90-10 model is established. This percentage gradually changes and by fifth grade the students are receiving 50-50 teaching. Middle school continues with the 50-50 English-Spanish.
