GGUSD is opening its first Spanish Dual Immersion Preschool Program at Russell Elementary Language Academy in the 2023-2024 school year! The program is free and designed especially for families interested in a Spanish dual immersion experience. Preschool sessions are 3 hours, offered in both the morning and afternoon. The program includes:

• Small class sizes (1 teacher or aide per 8 students)
• Caring teachers and staff provide a nurturing learning environment
• Focus on TK/K readiness skills
• Priority enrollment into Russell Elementary Language Academy for transitional kindergarten.

Families interested in enrolling their children can contact Clinton Corner Family Campus at (714) 663-6298 or the Russell Elementary Language Academy at (714) 663-6151. Our dual language academies have been widely successful with students demonstrating impressive academic and personal growth due to the benefits of learning academic content in two languages.
