Mission: At PCSD we value and celebrate bi-literacy and multiculturalism. We strive to support students’ home language and culture by viewing them as assets while fostering an environment of equity and inclusivity.
Vision: Our vision is to support all emergent bilingual students to reach high levels of bilingualism, biliteracy and grade level academic achievement through a culturally responsive educational setting, preparing them to succeed in an ever growing global market.
Why do Bilingual programs exist today?
To provide English language learners with an equal access to education.
