Dual Language Immersion SIG Webinar - Family Engagement: Key to DLI Success

When:  Sep 17, 2025 from 18:00 to 19:00 (ET)

Dual language immersion (DLI) programs have proven to be highly effective in promoting bilingualism,
biliteracy, and sociocultural competence among students. However, the success of these programs is not
solely dependent on classroom instruction. The very heart of a thriving DLI program lies in the active
involvement of parents, caregivers, and the wider community. Their ongoing engagement and
collaboration are vital in nurturing and expanding the program's impact. This webinar will highlight
examples from different states, showcasing how building a strong partnership with parents and
caregivers is essential for the sustained growth and effectiveness of DLI initiatives.
