With a focus on individual development, HCDC stresses small class sizes and excellent teacher/ student ratios. HCDC provides a bilingual educational program for a culturally diverse population of children. We are a year-round program open from 5:30am - 5:30pm Monday - Friday. Providing services for children of 6weeks - 12 years of age. Bilingual Education for your child! HCDC is delighted to offer children a Spanish and English Immersion language program naturally infused into our traditional academic curriculum. Languages are most easily learned during the early years as a child's brain is developing and readily absorbs a second language. Our children are learning Spanish and English through an immersion model approach. The research is clear: early exposure to a foreign language provides numerous lifelong benefits including stronger cognitive skills; higher standardized test scores; appreciation and tolerance for other cultures; heightened creativity; and greater career opportunities.
