Do you know someone that is Bilingual and wants to come to La Promesa?

We are growing here at La Promesa and we want to ask you to recommend your family and friends into our Dual Language Program. If a student wants to continue to learn and be educated in English and Spanish, then La Promesa is a place for them. They will graduate with a Seal of Biliteracy and be ready for the demanding needs that employers are looking for in being Bilingual.
