Commitment

Commitment to Program *

I acknowledge that I have read and agree to the statement below.

Students need an extended period of time to reach high levels of proficiency in a second language. Many years of study are required for students to realize the academic achievement benefits of well-implemented dual language programs. It is important that your child remain enrolled in the Hmong DBE course of study for as many years as programming is available. Please check the box above to show your commitment to your child's continued participation in bilingual education in order to support their language and academic development.
