Our Vision

With LEEP, the Dual Language Lab of Greensboro will be a tuition-free, K-5 bilingual public charter school and community center where children from diverse backgrounds come together to learn in both Spanish and English -- and where parents build English skills and community alongside other families. We combine joy with rigorous academics. Children excel when they feel safe, supported, curious, and challenged -- and that is the environment we are building. Our long-term vision is to become the only K-12 bilingual public school district in North Carolina, offering a complete Spanish-English education from kindergarten through high school.
Target Location: Southwest Greensboro.
