English-Spanish Dual Language Program

The Edmonds School District Dual Language program is a Spanish-English bilingual program where students develop academic and social skills in both languages. The dual language program promotes cultural diversity and respect among all students. The program follows the 90:10 model where starting in kindergarten, 90% of the day is in Spanish and 10% is in English. As students progress through the grades, Spanish decreases by 10% and English increases by 10%, reaching 50% Spanish/50% English starting in 4th grade. The goal of the program is for students to become bilingual, biliterate, and achieve grade level proficiency in all subjects in both languages. The program will grow one grade level every school year.

School and Grades for the 2025 - 2026 School Year
