Welcome to the Horace Mann Dual Language School!

Title I Distinguished SchoolHorace Mann offers a two-way dual language education where all students learn a second language through content-based instruction, while enhancing their first language. 

Horace Mann's dual language program provides a unique opportunity for students to learn English and Spanish simultaneously by providing standards-based instruction in both languages. English and Spanish speakers are united in dual language classes, which are made up of 50% English speakers and 50% Spanish speakers. This allows both groups to benefit from exposure to native speakers. Students are then taught a highly academic curriculum in both languages.  

Learn more about our Horace Mann program by viewing a slide presentation explaining different parts of our program! (Download presentation by right-clicking on PDF and selecting Save.)
