Mission: Our mission is to educate and empower each student to realize their full potential and positively impact their communities. Our vision is to create a fellowship of learners building culturally-inclusive communities.
ASPIRA Academy aims to fulfill our mission by implementing a bilingual programmatic focus called dual language education with the immersion model. This was the first of its kind in Delaware, commencing in 2011 and seeking to educate and empower all language learners. Each student at ASPIRA Academy is supported throughout the learning journey to gain a proficiency in Spanish as our partner language.
