• Welcome to Dual Language Immersion!


    Chandler Unified School District is proud to offer dual language immersion (DLI) programs in Spanish and Mandarin Chinese.  These programs of choice are currently offered at four elementary schools and two junior high schools.  We implement a 50/50 research-based model in elementary schools, a 70/30 model in middle/junior high schools and a world languages continuation in high school.  Students have the opportunity to start at an early age learning a new language while learning grade level content.

     

    CUSD Program Goals


    Students participating in the program will become bilingual, bi-literate, develop cultural awareness, and global citizenship skills.
