Welcome! Bienvenido!

At Claremont doors are opened and minds are immersed in the richness of learning in two languages, English and Spanish.  Our two-way dual immersion program allows children to learn a second language the natural way through curricular content and every day interactions.  Students spend half of their day in a Spanish-language classroom learning math, science, reading/writing and music or art; and the other portion of the day learning reading/writing, social studies, physical education and music or art in English. 

We embrace our students’ talents, interests and challenges and offer an accepting, caring, and supportive cross-cultural environment in which to learn.  As our motto states, the Claremont students and staff “strive for the highest and work to create a better world.”

Las puertas de Claremont se abren y toda la atención se profundiza en la riqueza de aprender dos idiomas; Inglés y Español.  Nuestro programa dual de inmersión permite a los niños aprender de una forma natural, un segundo idioma, a través del contenido curricular e interacciones diarias.  Los estudiantes pasan medio día aprendiendo en español: matemáticas, ciencias, lectura, escritura, música o arte; la otra mitad del día pasan aprendiendo lectura, escritura, estudios sociales, educación física, música, o arte en inglés. 

Nosotros consideramos los talentos, intereses y desafíos de nuestros estudiantes, ofreciendo un ambiente cariñoso aceptando y apoyando un aprendizaje intercultural. Los estudiantes de Claremont y el personal docente se esfuerzan por “Alcanzar las metas más altas y trabajan para crear un mundo mejor”.

  • Dear Claremont Families,

     

    We have enjoyed a wonderful week of learning in two languages and just like the flowers, our Claremont Immersion students are blooming!

     

    Please remember that next Friday, May 10 is the final day to register for summer school.  We encourage as many of our students as possible to participate in this five week program, held at Claremont Immersion this summer.  Summer School is a fantastic way for our students to keep up both languages and be engaged in learning!

     

    I hope to see many of you at the Claremont PTA Silent Auction this Saturday from 6:30 - 9:00 p.m. at Founder's Hall at George Mason University (3351 Fairfax Drive, Arlington).   More information is on the Claremont PTA website at http://claremontpta.org/.  Thank you in advance to the many volunteers who have made this event possible, as well as the support that you provide to our school.

     

    Finally, I would like to thank all of our parents for the many ways that you support the school and your children's education.

     

    Warm regards,

    Jessica Panfil

    Estimadas Familias de Claremont,

    Hemos disfrutado de una semana maravillosa de aprendizaje en dos idiomas y al igual que las flores, los estudiantes de nuestra escuela de Inmersión Claremont están floreciendo.

    Por favor  recuerde  que el próximo viernes, 10 de mayo es el último día de inscripciones para la escuela de verano.  Le animamos  a que nuestros estudiantes como sea posible participen  en este programa de cinco semanas,  este verano será  aquí en la  escuela de Inmersión Claremont.  La escuela de verano es una manera fantástica para que nuestros estudiantes  mantengan ambos idiomas y se comprometan con el aprendizaje.

    Espero ver a muchos de ustedes en la Subasta Silenciosa de la Organización de Padres y Maestros (PTA, por sus siglas en inglés) de Claremont este sábado de 6:30-9:00 p.m.  en el “Founder's Hall” de la Universidad de George Mason (3351 Fairfax Drive, Arlington).   Más información en la página web  del  PTA de Claremont http://claremontpta.org/.             Agradecemos de antemano a los muchos voluntarios que han hecho posible este evento, así como el apoyo que brindan a nuestra escuela.

    Por último, me gustaría agradecer a todos nuestros padres por las muchas maneras en que usted apoya a la escuela y la educación de sus hijos.

    Un Cálido Saludo,

    Jessica Panfil

    Directora

    Escuela de Inmersión Claremont
