Abstract

Dual language programs vary in structure and implementation but often share three common goals for students: (1) to develop bilingualism and biliteracy, based on high levels of proficiency in two languages (English and a partner language); (2) to achieve academically at grade level or better in both languages; and (3) to develop an understanding and appreciation of multiple cultures, with positive cross-cultural attitudes toward fellow students, their families, and the community.
