At this time, the Dual Immersion Spanish Program is fully enrolled in all grades for the upcoming 2025–2026 school year. The application window for students entering 1st grade in the 2026–2027 school year is open! Registration for the Dual Immersion program closes February 6, 2026. Please click on this Dual Language Immersion Application Process link to learn more about the process. The application to apply is at the bottom of the link page.
We maintain a waitlist made up of students who applied during the official application window, which closes each February prior to a child’s 1st grade year. Students who were not accepted during that initial process are placed on the waitlist in the order of their original lottery number from that year.
If your child applied during the designated window, you may call the office to confirm they are on the waitlist. Please note, however, that we do not disclose where students fall on the list.
If your child did not apply prior to 1st grade, they may still be added to the bottom of the waitlist by contacting the school office.
Most openings occur when a current student moves and is no longer able to attend William Penn. These openings may come up at the end of summer after registration or during the school year. When a spot becomes available, we will contact the next eligible family on the waitlist. That family will have 24 hours to accept the offer; otherwise, the opportunity will be extended to the next family on the list.
We appreciate your understanding and continued interest in our program.
