William Wharton Dual Language Academy Reviews
Rating 5 out of 5 2 reviews
Unique opportunity to receive high-quality instruction in two languages (English and Spanish). Teachers are highly trained through the IB programme, most are seasoned/experienced. 8th graders take AP Spanish for high school AND college credit, which is a great advantage. The students typically perform very well on that college-level exam, which is impressive for 13 year olds! The campus is safe and clean. The staff all know the families, and it feels like a close-knit community. The PTO supports the school without interfering. We love it.
Engaged staff who seem willing to listen. Lots of involved parents. 80% Spanish instruction, 20% of the day in English for the younger grades. Switches to 20% Spanish, 80% English by older grades. Need to do more on social emotional learning and behavioral health. Beautiful new campus is inspiring and exciting for students.
