The only academy of its kind in the entire state, the four-year program atSprayberry is truly an exceptional opportunity in that it is open to both native speakers and students who are learningSpanish as a foreign language.Sprayberry's decision to model the ISLA program on a more inclusive design is based on a growing body of research:students enrolled in other "immersion" programs actually end up learning the target language in isolation, but ISLA students enjoy an increased level of peer interaction with native speakers. This has the benefit of helping to accelerate thespeed with which they are able to attain language proficiency, and research has shown that students who perfect theirlanguage skills alongside their native peers score as well as (or even better than) their monolingual peers on standardized tests.Check out the videos below!Part 1: Sprayberry High School’s Innovative Bilingual ProgramPart 2: The Benefits of Bridging Two LanguagesPart 3: Parent Support for Bilingual Programs at Sprayberry High School
