About Academy of Multilingual Immersion Studies
-
We are a Spanish immersion school located near Roselawn. We are a magnet school, and proud to be part of the Cincinnati Public School district. Any Preschool-8 student living in the CPS district can be an AMIS Musketeer.
Immersion is a research-based method of teaching students to understand, speak, read and write in a new language. Not only do AMIS teachers teach Spanish, they teach in Spanish. Students learn their math, science and social studies content in their foreign language. This means our students learn more than conversational Spanish, they learn the academic language as well. Studies have shown time and time again that being bilingual gives students an academic edge, not to mention how good it looks on a resume.
Students at AMIS are taught by an incredibly diverse staff. Teachers at AMIS are dedicated to fostering a climate of acceptance and academic rigor. As a Kagan Cooperative Learning school, AMIS is proud to teach students the collaborative and leadership skills they will need as they enter the work force. We pride ourselves on the fact that our students, a very diverse group themselves, leave AMIS willing and able to work with people who are very different from themselves.

Community Learning Centers
For our schools to transform, our communities must be revitalized. For our communities to revitalize, our schools must be transformed. They are dependent on each other and Community Learning Centers are the link.
What is a Community Learning Center (CLC)?
Schools and the communities they serve are closely linked. Seldom does one succeed without the success of the other. That's why our CLCs support student achievement, enrich and revitalize communities, and maximize the community's return on their financial investment.We are very proud to be a CLC and a neighborhood anchor. We strive to go beyond academics to focus on the whole child by serving as a hub for community services that are available to all students, their families and the entire community. We are able to offer a variety of services thanks to the collaboration and support of our many partners and the committed community of Roselawn.
To learn more about the services available at our school or how your company or organization can become a CLC partner or volunteer, please contact us.
