DLBE School Visits

School Visits are rewarding and valuable pre-conference events that create the opportunity for educators to observe and learn what a Dual Language Bilingual Education (DLBE) program or school looks like in practice. Multiple schools in the area are opening their doors to you on Monday-Friday on November 2-6 and 16-20, 2026. 

This year we are offering two types of visits: 

• General Tours | $50 per visit 
  Includes a site tour, a Q&A session, and short, informal visits to multiple classrooms.
• NOT LISTED YET - COMING SOOON! Spotlight Lesson Demonstrations | $75 per visit 
  Includes a formal classroom visit with pre- and post-observation discussions. Learn more here. 

All school visits are General Tours unless specified to be Spotlight Lesson Demos. 

• There are full-day and part-day options – plan to stay for the duration of the time you register for. 
  
• Sites are accepting different total number of visitors – some slots will fill up faster than others. 
• We ask that groups take the opportunity to visit multiple programs, and we request that each district take up no more than two visit spots at a particular site per day. Please create the opportunity for your district's visitors to debrief with each other afterwards, so that multiple people can learn from the visit even if they are unable to attend. Thank you for your understanding as we work to distribute visits equitably amongst multiple states.
