La Escuelita Bilingual School

mily run and operated school for the past 31 years. La Escuelita now has two locations serving both the University District and South Seattle – Columbia City. Over the years we have established strong ties, a reputation of quality care, and a reciprocated level of respect within the early childhood community. La Escuelita provides services for infants to preschoolers. We have a bicultural bilingual curriculum that fosters the development of English and Spanish using a dual language model. Learning content takes place during the day in either English or Spanish depending on the language plan in each classroom. Particular attention is given to the ethnic identity development of each child. We assist children to identify their cultural strengths, explore the many contributions of our diverse community and learn how to address issues of bias and oppression. We also assist all children to develop the cross cultural skills needed to become successful within mainstream “American” culture. We focus on all the learning domains: cognitive, social emotional, language, creative and physical development in our early childhood curriculum. Our goal is to develop competent bilingual bicultural students who will be successful in school. The cultural arts play a dominant role in our curriculum. We strive to incorporate within the curriculum the many voices and art forms of our diverse community. We incorporate many guests and artists from the community in the development of our curriculum activities. We also encourage participation in community events as part of the learning experience.
