Global Village Academy is a language immersion school offering Spanish, Mandarin Chinese, Russian and French. www.globalvillageacademy.org/aurora
Global Village Academy is an international school with language immersion instruction in Mandarin Chinese, Spanish and French.
Our students develop a GLOBAL perspective by learning a second language; exploring diverse cultures, to cultivate understanding and respect; and developing the skills to live and work with others internationally – all essential elements for life in the 21st century.
With the world as the context for education, students need to find their place, their voice, and their dream. Our VILLAGE provides the support and the challenge to motivate students to excel in school and in life. Their success depends upon their own initiative and the support of peers, teachers, parents, and the wider community.
The ACADEMY has always been a symbol of rigorous education, critical thinking abilities, and love of knowledge. Through structured inquiry students explore multi-disciplinary units that span each language village. These units integrate core subjects and encourage students to ask questions and make discoveries in their active search for knowledge.

Provide an academically challenging, content-rich, internationally-grounded liberal arts curriculum that holds high expectations for all students, including becoming fluent and literate in a world language in addition to English
