Various studies suggest that bilingual speakers develop greater mental flexibility, resulting in an advanced ability to process conflicting information to identify the most important information. We believe that the best time to learn a second language is during your child’s developmental years. This skill will also enhance your child’s attentiveness and short-term memory, and help to provide them with greater opportunities in the future.
Infants exposed to dual languages can sometimes take longer to learn to speak, but extensive studies done have found that lifelong exposure to bilingual environments create extensive competitive advantages – greater creativity, lateral thinking, and the ability to focus deeply – and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. That said, it’s never too late to start. Many children have come to us at ages 6-10 knowing zero Spanish, and have not only caught up… but excelled!
We are proud to implement proprietary momentum curriculum. This curriculum is based on professional standards, and is designed with emphasis on age-appropiate lessons. Fresh materials, ideas and programs are added yearly to keep lessons interesting and current. Additionally, all of our teachers are 1-2-3 READ! Certified. Our students graduate with a strong academic background and are well prepared to attend any school.
Although we are an academic school, we still realize that our children are still young and need to have fun. This is why we encourage our teachers to share new ideas and express their creativity. We accomplish learning in a variety of ways that are designed to excite and appeal to every child.

Founded in 1992, the Courthouse Academy is still owned and operated by the founder Kym Pomares.
Kym had a vision that she has transferred to thousands of students over the years and has been proven time and time again: bilingualism is a significant life advantage.
Kym did not grow up in a bilingual household. She knew she was of Spanish heritage on her father’s side, but she lost him to illness at a very young age. It was not until years later that she discovered he was of Cuban origin. But she always, from a very young age, felt knowing another language was critical to life success. In high school Spanish clicked for her, and after college it grew into a lifelong passion.
Over the past 30 years of running this school, Kym and her team have worked hard to provide academic excellence through a wide variety of learning experiences and innovative curriculum. Their beautiful building supports infants, toddler, preschoolers and children all the way through grade-5 immersed in an English-Spanish environment that stimulates their minds, builds their confidence, in an Academy that keeps learning fun.
