- Academic benefits: Dual language immersion students can do as well or better than non-immersion students in academics, graduation, and participation in higher academic programs as they reach high school.
- Cognitive benefits: Dual language immersion students develop more neural pathways in the brain that leads to preparedness for more learning and connections.
- Social and Economic benefits: Dual language immersion students are more prepared for learning other languages as they get older and are more prepared for work and life in a local and global economy.
