Our Program

At ¡HOLA! Elementary, we believe that every child deserves a vibrant, rigorous, and joyful education that speaks to both the mind and the heart. Our Arts-infused Dual Language Program is designed to nurture creativity, build bilingualism and biliteracy, and develop strong character so that students grow into confident, compassionate leaders.

Building Character Through Kindness & Responsibility

At ¡HOLA! Elementary, we know that academic excellence must go hand in hand with strong character. Our community is rooted in two guiding values: Kindness and Responsibility.

  • Kindness: Students learn to respect, care for, and uplift one another, recognizing that empathy and compassion are essential in building a supportive school community.
  • Responsibility: Students are encouraged to take ownership of their actions, their learning, and their role in contributing to a better world.

These values are woven into daily routines, arts experiences, service projects, and classroom culture, helping children grow into resilient, confident individuals who lead with both courage and heart.

The ‘Power of YET’ at ¡HOLA! Elementary

At ¡HOLA! Elementary, we believe in the Power of YET—the idea that every challenge is an opportunity to grow, every mistake is a step toward mastery, and every student has unlimited potential waiting to unfold. Our school culture embraces the mindset that learning is a journey, not a finish line.
Dual-Language Immersion

As a Dual Language School, we provide instruction in both English and Spanish, ensuring that students become bilingual and biliterate. By learning in two languages, our students strengthen cognitive flexibility, deepen cross-cultural understanding, and prepare for success in a global society.

We believe language is power, when students build fluency in more than one language, they expand their ability to connect, create, and contribute to the world around them.
Arts-Infused Learning

The ARTs are at the center of everything we do. Through Dance, Music, Theater, Digital Arts, and Visual Arts, students learn to express themselves, think critically, and collaborate with others. The goal is to enrich very subject area with artistic practices, ensuring that learning is hands-on, creative, and deeply engaging.

Our classrooms come alive with movement, rhythm, storytelling, and design. Whether choreographing a dance that represents the water cycle, composing music to capture the emotions of a novel, or creating digital art projects that showcase a unit of learning, students are encouraged to explore, imagine, and innovate.
