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.

Wharton is an International Spanish Academy!
Wharton Elementary was named an International Spanish Academy (ISA) from Spain's Ministerio de Educacion y Ciencia in 2007. ISAs are part of an international cooperative educational project in English and Spanish between public schools in the U.S. and Canada and the Ministry of Education and Culture of Spain.
