Clarksville-Montgomery County School System Spanish Immersion Parent Interest Meeting set for November 5th

Montgomery County, TN – Parents of children eligible to begin kindergarten in the 2020-2021 school year who are interested in learning more about the Clarksville-Montgomery County School System (CMCSS) Spanish Immersion Program are invited to attend a parent interest meeting on Tuesday, November 5th from 6:00pm – 7:00pm at Barksdale Elementary School.

The Spanish Immersion Program offers all academic instruction in the target language of Spanish.

Partnered with add.a.lingua, the Immersion program is committed to quality dual-language immersion with the goals of increased academic achievement, cross-cultural intelligence, and high levels of bilingualism.

This authentic communication during the school day allows students to learn a second language in a similar manner in which they learned their first language.

The program began in August 2018 with two kindergarten classes and expanded to K-1 this school year. In the 2020-21 school year, the program will continue to expand to classes in kindergarten through second grade.
