Capistrano Unified was awarded the prestigious California School Boards Association's Golden Bell! This award promotes excellence in education by highlighting outstanding programs and governance practices. Thanks to the efforts by both the Mandarin and Spanish immersion programs, we are honored to be recognized for the Biliteracy strategies that support all students in achieving proficiency so that they graduate from high school bilingual and biliterate. We are so proud of the teachers, aides, staff, and families for their dedication and support to the Mandarin Immersion Program.
