Living the Language (Spanish):
Living the Language is full immersion language program that offers an enrichment opportunity for students to become fluent in Spanish. LtL is a supplement to the Spanish classes that students take throughout the school day. Instructors do not speak English in class, thereby enforcing students to engage in various activities using Spanish as their main language! The World Language program at BCS aims to prepare students to be eligible to earn the Seal of Biliteracy.
