Arco Iris offers a dual-language program beginning with 90% Spanish instruction in early grades, gradually shifting to a balanced bilingual model by upper elementary. Core subjects are taught through Spanish in the early years, ensuring strong language immersion alongside academic development. The school integrates Latin American culture, history, and literature into its curriculum, fostering global awareness and cultural appreciation. Singapore Math and NGSS science are taught in Spanish while cultural celebrations anchor social-studies units. Small class sizes and a structured approach to literacy and math help students excel in both languages. The goal is for graduates to achieve true bilingual fluency and cultural competency.

*Arco Iris has officially announced plans to expand with a new location in Tigard. The Tigard campus is planned to open initially for Kindergarten through 2nd Grade (K-2). They intend to add one grade level each year until the campus eventually serves students through 8th Grade. If you are interested in the Tigard campus specifically, you can join their Tigard Interest List to receive direct updates via their website.
