While the classrooms at Holy Rosary Bilingual Academy each look different,
student learning and growth is the goal for all.
Our Classrooms
-
Pre-K
Our Pre-K provides a full-day Spanish program for 3 & 4-year-old children. The curriculum in Pre-K is innovative, play-based, and child-centered. Children will be taught in a dynamic setting with native Spanish speaking teachers who understand the need for inquiry and play-based learning. Our Pre-K program was voted "Best in the Northwest" by the Seattle Times!
-
Kindergarten
The kindergarten class at Holy Rosary is taught with 70% Spanish immersion including instruction in math, science, social studies and Spanish language. Because kindergartners are also learning the foundations of the English language, reading and religion are taught in English. This model builds the biliteracy of all students. The kindergarten teacher and assistant teacher are both fluent in Spanish and English. Play is also an important element of the kindergarten program allowing the children to build their social-emotional skills.

1st & 2nd Grades
Our first and second grade classrooms both focus on reading and math foundational skills, as well as social studies, science and religion. These subject areas are all taught in English with the students attending a daily Spanish immersion class taught by a native Spanish speaking teacher. Hands-on learning is a key element of the primary classrooms.

3rd & 4th Grades
Third and fourth grade students learn together in a multi-age classroom with instruction differentiated to meet the needs of all learners, providing both support and enrichment.
