Board approves community input plan for dual-language immersion study; no program changes planned for 202526#8211;26
Summary
District leaders presented a short parent survey and outlined a slow, multi-month study of Dual-Language Immersion (DLI) programming; board was told there are no plans to alter DLI programming for the 202526#8211;26 school year.
District administrators asked the board to approve a short parent and family survey as the first step in a multi-month study of Dual-Language Immersion (DLI) programming. Staff emphasized that the review is intended to explore refinements, not to make immediate changes: "We have no plans to alter our DLI programming for the 25-26 school year at all," a district administrator said.
The survey uses display logic so respondents who currently have students in DLI will see specific follow-ups, while other respondents will see a different question set. Staff said the study will take several months and include follow-up conversations with parent groups; results will be presented to the board for consideration before any program changes are proposed.
Board members asked for open-ended responses to be shared; staff agreed to provide open-ended answers and said they could code or categorize responses if requested. Administrators identified two cones (school groupings) that do not currently offer DLI, and said findings could point to targeted program expansion in those areas.
The board heard the survey preview and did not endorse any immediate operational changes; staff will finalize the survey and distribute it to families (anticipated the following week), then collect responses and bring findings back to the board.
