Pocono Mountain Dual Language Charter School helps students become bilingual, biliterate, and culturally confident in English and Spanish — preparing them for a lifetime of opportunity.
We are a public charter school serving the Pocono Mountain community, empowering students to become bilingual, biliterate, and culturally confident in English and Spanish.
We educate the whole child by integrating rigorous academics with social-emotional learning, character development, and meaningful relationships that support lifelong success.
Our dual language program develops strong academic foundations while building fluency and literacy in both English and Spanish. Students learn to think, communicate, and succeed in two languages from an early age.
Families and community partners are essential to our success. We foster strong partnerships that support student learning, celebrate culture, and strengthen our shared community.
Imagine your child fluently reading, writing, and solving problems effortlessly in both Spanish and English. At Pocono Mountain Dual Language Charter School, we won’t just teach a second language. We build bilingual leaders from kindergarten through 8th grade.

I strongly support the school’s mission to nurture curious minds through high quality dual language instruction and community values, as well as its vision of a joyful, inclusive community where students develop bilingualism, academic excellence, and meaningful connections to lead and serve.
The school’s dual language model offers a unique and essential approach to learning. By fostering bilingualism, biliteracy, and cross-cultural understanding from an early age, it equips our students with the cognitive skills and global mindset needed to thrive and contribute back to our local community.
This school will expand vital educational options for local families, and I respectfully ask for your vote in favor of its charter application.
