Help us bring a new school to Tigard! 🎉

After more than a decade of serving Beaverton families, Arco Iris Spanish Immersion School is expanding to Tigard, creating even more opportunities for young students in Washington County to become bilingual and biliterate.

Arco Iris is a highly rated, tuition-free public charter school serving K–5 students in Beaverton. The new Tigard campus will bring Arco Iris’ 80% Spanish immersion model to a new community, giving more families the opportunity to have their children learn in two languages from an early age.

I’m incredibly proud of the work that has gone into making this expansion possible and excited to see the impact it will have on Tigard families. 💙❤️💛

Recently, Everyday Northwest host Ally Osborne sat down with Arco Iris Executive Director Jesús Urdiales, a veteran bilingual educator with more than 25 years of experience leading multicultural and dual-language schools. They were joined by Assistant Director Perla Murphy and Student Success Coach Luis Samayoa to talk about what this expansion means for the community.
