Why choose Caswell?
At Caswell Dual Language Academy, we are committed to ensuring high academic achievement for all students through our dual language program, our Professional Learning Communities (PLC), and through building positive relationships with students and families.
Caswell has the district's highest attendance rate for an elementary site, exceeding 95%, and has successfully reduced chronic absenteeism by 14% in the last two years, fostering a positive environment conducive to academic success. Despite the unique challenge of implementing the Professional Learning Communities (PLC) process within a dual language setting, Caswell's dedicated teachers have innovatively incorporated reteach opportunities that consider students' language proficiency alongside content mastery. Through a commitment to data-driven instruction, teachers consistently make informed decisions, integrating language within the evaluation cycle. Moreover, Caswell's implementation of Positive Behavior Intervention and Support (PBIS) and a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) underscores its dedication to addressing student needs comprehensively, ensuring a supportive and inclusive learning environment where every student can thrive. Caswell's program is delivering consistent exceptional student outcomes, with notable achievements such as double-digit growth on the most recent district assessment in English Language Arts and Math for grades 3 to 6.
In today's competitive landscape, fluency in multiple languages and cultural competence are invaluable assets. Our passionate teachers are committed to equipping students with the skills and mindset needed to thrive in the global workforce, empowering them to excel in an interconnected world.
