Preschool Programs
Amigos de Palo Alto offer parents a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where they may leave their children, both for childcare and to begin learning from bi-lingual instructors how to speak and learn Spanish the same way their native language was learned – naturally! Located at 1611 Stanford Ave in Palo Alto California, across the street from Stanford University and Escondido Elementary School.
Two-Way Immersion Programs
Directory of Two-Way Immersion Programs lists two way immersion programs across the United States.
Books
SpanishBooksForKids.com – a SIPAPA created blog where we provide book recommendations for K-8th grade. Designed to help you figure out what books to purchase for your child’s recreational reading (think summer reading!), we include book covers, a quick description, ISBN numbers, links to purchase from Amazon and links to the local library if available.
City of Palo Alto Library is working in partnership with SIPAPA and Escondido’s Spanish Immersion faculty to increase its Spanish language book collection at Children’s and Mitchell Park libraries.
This sounds like a great program! We would love to enroll our child in the program. We currently live in San Jose, and couldn’t move to Palo Alto and then get rejected through the lottery…. What are the chances of getting in? This is the program that we like the best!
