Dual Language Exploration

Our new Dual Language Exploration program offers you and your 4-year-old child a great opportunity to try out and get a head start on our popular and successful Dual Language Immersion programs.

The Spanish Dual Language Exploration program experience is offered now at Chandler Traditional Academy - Liberty Campus and CTA Freedom.

The 2021-2022 school year introduced a new Dual Language Exploration program opportunity at two of our Dual Language Immersion elementary sites.

Students currently have the option to explore the language and culture of Mandarin Chinese at Tarwater Elementary, or Spanish at CTA Liberty or CTA Freedom in addition to their core preschool subjects, which include literacy, mathematics, science, social studies, fine arts, physical education and more! Age-appropriate language resources will enhance the learning experience in this program of choice.
