Public UpdatesEducation & TrainingDetected Jun 15, 2026

GFW Public Schools operates a Spanish Dual Language Immersion (DLI) program at GFW Elementary in grades K-2, with 46% of students in those grades receiving instruction in Spanish for at least half the day. The district uses mCLASS with DIBELS 8th Edition in English and a DIBELS Biliteracy tool in Spanish to screen literacy skills for DLI students. The literacy plan emphasizes biliteracy, culturally responsive practices, and upcoming PLC time focused on culturally responsive literacy.While no new purchase is stated, maintaining and potentially expanding the DLI program implies ongoing needs for Spanish literacy curriculum, biliteracy assessment tools, teacher PD, and family engagement supports. Vendors in dual-language curriculum, Spanish assessments, or culturally responsive literacy coaching can engage around enhancing resources and professional learning for this established program.

Approximately 19–18–17 students per K-2 grade are in DLI; PLC time in 2025-26 and 2026-27 is dedicated to culturally responsive literacy practices supporting this work.
