March 7, 2011The Madison School District Plans to Expand its Dual Language Immersion ProgramElementary School Level DLI: Proposal to plan and implement DLI programs at Stephens, Thoreau, and Hawthorne Elementary Schools for the 2011-2012 School year. Given the ongoing increase in the number of Spanish-speaking English language learners, MMSD needs to implement bilingual education programming in order to meet legal requirements imposed by the state statutes. It is recommended we start planning at these three sites during the 2011-2012 school year for program implementation during the 2012-2013 school year starting with a Kindergarten cohort.Additional language options, particularly for elementary students will be good news. Nearby Verona launched a Mandarin immersion charter school recently.
