What Is Two-Way Dual Language?
Lipscomb Elementary’s Two-Way Dual Language program provides daily instruction in both English and Spanish. Students learn to read, write, and speak in both languages through a rigorous and enriching curriculum. Each classroom is made up of both English-first and Spanish-first speakers, creating an immersive, collaborative learning environment that supports academic growth and language development for all students. You can learn more about the district-wide program at DISD's Dual Language website.
