​
The Two Way Immersion (TWI) Program at Longfellow is continuation of the elementary TWI program at Sylvia Méndez. Longfellow TWI students will have two classes taught completely in Spanish each year during the three years they are at Longfellow. Please see the list of classes below.
​
Students from the Sylvia Mendez TWI Program and students in the bilingual program at Thousand Oaks will automatically qualify for the Longfellow TWI program. If your student has not been in these programs but is a fluent Spanish speaker and there is space in the program, they might be able to enroll after passing a fluency test. Otherwise they can take beginner or intermediate Spanish starting in 7th grade. Please contact Mary Patterson or Principal Furlan with any questions.
To enroll your student in the TWI Program at Longfellow, please visit the BUSD Admissions site. Select the program on the middle school application. The 2021-22 First Round application deadline is Feb. 5th, 2021!
​
Also, see the Longfellow TWI Program doc for more details.
