Dual Language Immersion

Beginning in elementary school, students receive instruction in both Spanish and English, allowing them to achieve academic proficiency in both languages. The program fosters brain development, enhances problem-solving skills, and prepares students for future career and educational opportunities in a global society. When students enter high school, they can begin to earn college credit. The credit they earn in a high school DLI program is accepted by all of Utah’s universities. In four years, students can earn up to 12 college units to put towards a minor in Spanish with their degree in anything!

The amount of college credit awarded may vary for each college or university.

AP Capstone

AP Capstone™ is a diploma program from College Board based on two yearlong AP courses: AP Seminar and AP Research. Rather than teaching subject-specific content, these courses develop students’ skills in research, analysis, evidence-based arguments, collaboration, writing, and presenting. Students who complete the two-year program can earn one of two different AP Capstone awards, which are valued by colleges across the United States and around the world.
