The Language of Connection
At SLLIS, our Dual Language Immersion Model prepares our students for a limitless future. Each day, all core content areas are taught in the designated Language of Instruction, resulting in the balance between the target language and English that makes our model so unique - and supports our learners to become proficient in their native language and the target language.

Bonjour! Ni Hao! Hola!
When you visit SLLIS, you will see Language of the Day signs all over campus. The Language of the Day is the designated language used for everyday interactions at school - recess, lunch, informal conversations - to the greatest extent possible. This daily, informal, colloquial practice is how our learners become fully bilingual and biliterate!
Learning from One Another
We learn languages by interacting with each other. Throughout the day, our students work in “bilingual pairs” to provide “parallel effort” towards their learning goals. They learn how to work closely with their peers and will ultimately reach a much deeper level of language learning through collaboration.
