Language Immersion Charter School Opens in Baltimore

Baltimore's first language immersion charter school is seeking students for the 2008-09 school year, and invites parents and children to visit the school to learn more about its unique mission. The Baltimore International Academy, located in northeast Baltimore, hopes to recruit children from all over the city to take their choice of instruction in Spanish, French, Russian or Chinese.

The school, which is charetered by the Baltimore City Public School system, is holding open houses throughout the spring at its campus at 3501 Taylor Avenue at 7:00, which is the campus of the Maryland School for the Blind:

• Tuesday, January 29
• Tuesday, February 26
• Tuesday, March 18
• Tuesday, April 22
• Tuesday, May 20
  

The school follows the Maryland State Volunteer Curriculum and will offer four immersion tracks for the 2008-09 school year and those are French, Mandarin Chinese, Russian and Spanish. We have positions available for students enrolling in Kindergarten and 1st grade.
