It is a public charter school and therefore does not charge tuition, however there is an application for Kindergarten and the Upper School grades 6-12.[2] HistoryLILA was founded by a group of parent volunteers in September 2004.[3] Since its inception, the school has offered a Spanish Language Immersion program and in 2011, LILA expanded to include a Mandarin Chinese Language program as well.[1] Teachers plan and deliver lessons at LILA using primarily the target language, or L2. Teachers are either native speakers of the target language, or have acquired near-native speaking abilities. Subjects such as social studies, mathematics, science and technology, arts, and physical education are taught in the L2. English, including reading and writing, is introduced as a formal subject in second grade.[2] In spring 2009, the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) awarded LILA accreditation in its International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP). The success of the program also spurred the Forest Lake school district to develop its own language immersion programs.[4] LILA expanded from Pre-K-6 to grades 7-8 in the 2015-16 school year, and added grades 9-12 in the 2016-17 school year. Students in grades 6-12 (the "Upper School") have the option to take select classes in their L2. All classes are also offered in English for students without immersion backgrounds or who choose not to continue immersion learning.
