Mi Escuelita Preschool teaches English to children from all cultures and prepares them for academic success. Mi Escuelita’s approach to teaching English to its students is to immerse them in a language rich environment. It is not a bilingual educational setting; English is the classroom language. Children are encouraged to become bilingual with the goal that they will be proficient and literate in two languages. Because children attend Mi Escuelita during their language formation years, it is the opportune time for them to become comfortable using more than one language and they will retain this ability as they grow older.
