▬▬▬▬▬▬  ⭐About Us⭐ ▬▬▬▬▬▬
Polyglots Academy was established in the state of Minnesota in the year 2011. Beginning as a program serving students in PreK-2nd grade, we have since expanded our class offerings to include students up to 12th grade. Our primary focus is to promote literacy through the encouragement of world language learning. We teach and enhance literacy skills in multiple languages which currently include: English, Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Russian. We also include classes in the areas of S.T.E.A.M. (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) to allow students to explore their learning interests across multiple subjects. 
Our goal is to provide a safe, fun, and engaging environment where children can develop strong language skills and cultural competency. We believe that every child has the potential to learn a new language, and we are committed to helping them achieve their full potential.
