The Dual Language Summer Bridge is a two-week enrichment program designed for current 5th grade students who will be entering the Dual Language Program in 6th grade at George Washington Middle School or Francis C. Hammond Middle School. This program is delivered in Spanish, aiming to “bridge” students’ Spanish language and literacy skills over the summer as they prepare for middle school.

Additionally, the Dual Language Summer Bridge serves as a summer enrichment experience that enhances students’ Spanish proficiency through the exploration of the histories, geographies, and environments of Spanish-speaking countries not covered during the elementary Summer Language Academy. 

Please note that program capacity will depend on staffing availability and student registration.
