We are excited to introduce our original, dual-language elementary education program to the Las Vegas community! Strong Start Academy Elementary School at The Tony Hsieh Education Center is a new charter school, sponsored by the City of Las Vegas, opening this fall in the downtown area! According to the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine, students who participate in bilingual programs outperform similar students in a traditional, monolingual setting. Regardless of their background, native English speakers, students of low socioeconomic status, or ESL students, our goal is to gift ALL of our students with a higher quality education that also focuses on producing bilingual and biliterate learners in English and Spanish, giving them twice the knowledge, educational value and success in their future.
