Sherwood Forest is one of 16 elementary schools in the Bellevue School District.  We have approximately 400 students in Kindergarten through 5th grade.  We are lucky to have a variety of programs that serve the needs of our students.  We house a centered Special Education program as well as a Beginning Level English Language Learner Program.  We also have a preschool program on our school campus.  In addition, we have additional supports for students through our English as a Second Language Program, Title I, Learning Assistance Programs.  Through these programs we support struggling students in reading, math, and language development both during the school day and in an extended day Math Club.  We also have many VIBES and parent volunteers who work with our school to support our students.  All staff at Sherwood Forest are committed to working collaboratively to provide the highest quality education for all students in our school.  We appreciate our partnerships with our community and believe that connection with students’ families plays a key role in academic success.  Thank you for sharing your children with Sherwood Forest each day. 

Please feel free to call us at 425-456-5700 if you have any questions.

Spanish Dual Language Program at
Sherwood Forest Elementary

Every child deserves the chance to become a citizen of the world in such a rich experience as a Dual Language classroom.
~ Stewart

Dual Language Education is also known as Two Way Immersion. Students from two language backgrounds learn together while instruction is systematically delivered in two languages. At Sherwood Forest, students enrolled are from English and Spanish speaking backgrounds.

Students read, write, listen and speak in both languages, becoming bilingual, bi-literate and bicultural. The Bellevue School District firmly believes that language is a valuable resource and a skill needed to contribute and compete globally in our developing world. Dual Language Programs offer the chance for students to add a language while at the optimal age for language learning.

Students at Sherwood Forest will develop both Spanish and English. Students should plan to enroll for the full six years of elementary Dual Language instruction to receive the total benefits of the program.
