Early Education Spanish Immersion
Rayito de Sol Spanish Immersion Early Learning Center is a full Spanish immersion preschool. This means that all instructions and activities are conducted in Spanish. New students quickly become comfortable with this method of learning and absorb the Spanish language more quickly than learning by hearing two languages at once.
Our young students succeed in our early education programs by participating in our Spanish curriculum, structured and unstructured activities. For example, these activities include singing songs, role-playing, playing games, learning from visual aids.
We offer safe, fun, and structured education and language development programs year-round that are built on integrity, diversity, and inclusion. In conclusion, we believe in the unlimited potential of every child, and we are confident that our Spanish immersion programs will elevate our students’ abilities and make them well-rounded individuals.
Rayito de Sol also offers free extracurricular activities, including yoga, dance, Latin American folklore, and various sports as part of our program.
