CITY LANGUAGE IMMERSION CHARTER

City Language Immersion Charter is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the Los Angeles Unified school district, located in Los Angeles, CA with about 360 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 16 teachers, City Language Immersion Charter has a student/teacher ratio of about 22:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

City Language Immersion Charter (CLIC), located on Venice Boulevard in Los Angeles, is a public charter elementary school dedicated to providing students with a robust bilingual education. The school operates on a dual-language immersion model, which is designed to help students achieve high levels of academic proficiency while developing fluency in both English and a second language—typically Spanish. By integrating language acquisition into the core curriculum, CLIC aims to foster cross-cultural competence and prepare students to succeed in a diverse, globalized society.

Beyond its language-focused academic program, the school emphasizes a holistic approach to education that prioritizes social-emotional development and critical thinking. As part of the City Charter Schools network, CLIC is committed to maintaining an inclusive school culture that reflects the vibrant diversity of the surrounding Los Angeles community. Through its unique pedagogical approach, the school seeks to equip students not only with bilingual skills but also with the collaborative and analytical tools necessary for long-term academic and personal success.
