Spanish in Action: Community Engagement is designed as a capstone course for students who have participated in the Dual Language Immersion (DLI) program. The course provides students with meaningful opportunities to apply their bilingual skills in authentic contexts through service, mentorship, and community engagement.
This course bridges classroom learning with real-world application by connecting high school DLI students to local elementary DLI programs and community organizations that serve Spanish-speaking populations. Through these partnerships, students will use their language and cultural competence to support instruction, mentor younger learners, and contribute to community initiatives, deepening their understanding of the role bilingualism plays in civic engagement, leadership, and professional success.
