Since 2004, parents have chosen Lakes International Language Academy to help guide their children toward becoming responsible, caring, informed, curious, and engaged global citizens. LILA students gain the knowledge and good study habits that come from the rigorous International Baccalaureate program as they develop literacy and proficiency in their second (or third) language and English. Lower School (grades K-5) students choose a full language immersion program in either Mandarin Chinese or Spanish; Upper School (grades 6 and up) may choose immersion or Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, or French. Along the way, LILA students learn to appreciate the world and its many cultures as they progress through the International Baccalaureate curriculum. They’re ready for greater challenges in their academic journey and beyond.
