One Way vs. Two Way /Un sendero vs. Dos Senderos
•One-Way Dual Language programs are implemented when there is only one language group available. At PSJA, our One-Way Dual Language programs are composed of Spanish-speaking English Language Learners.
•Two-Way Dual Language programs are implemented when the Non-LEP population is integrated with English Language Learners in a bilingual enrichment setting. There should be a balance of students of each language background, with no less than one third of English-dominant students.
•At PSJA, our Two-Way Dual Language programs are composed of Spanish-speaking English Language Learners and native English and/or English-dominant students.
PSJA ISD currently implements both the One Way and Two Way programs from Pre-K through 2nd grade district-wide with a select group of campuses implementing Pre-K through 5th Grade.
• Los programas de un sendero son implementados cuando solo esta disponible un grupo de estudiantes de un lenguaje. En nuestro distrito, nuestros programas dual están compuestos de estudiantes que dominan el español.
•Los programas de dos senderos son implementados cuando los estudiantes que dominan el inglés se integran con estudiantes que dominan el español en un ambiente bilingüe enriquecido. Debe de haber un balance del lenguaje de cada grupo, pero no debe haber menos de un tercio de estudiantes que dominan el inglés.
•En nuestro distrito, nuestros programas de dos senderos están compuestos de estudiantes que dominan el español con estudiantes que dominan el inglés.
Actualmente PSJA implementa los dos programas, un sendero y dos senderos, desde Pre-kinder a segundo grado a nivel del distrito con algunas escuelas implementando de Pre-kinder hasta quinto.

• The One Way Dual Language Program will replace the transitional bilingual program by adding an additional grade level each year. The District’s goal is to have full implementation in the elementary schools by the year 2014.
