What is Dual Language?
The Wharton Elementary Dual
Language philosophy promotes both Spanish and English as
languages of equal value. We feel that by placing importance on
both languages we are not only preparing our students for the
multi-lingual, multicultural world we are living in, but they
are also learning the importance and value in respecting other
cultures in our increasingly global society.
To learn more about the benefits of our Dual Language
Program, click here.

results,
