Principal's Message

Hello, DeMille family!

I am elated to share with you on May 16, DeMille My Viet Language Academy was able to celebrate the remarkable 10-year anniversary of our Vietnamese Dual Language Immersion (VDLI) program—proudly recognized as the first of its kind in the state of California.

This milestone was commemorated with a memorable morning celebration at DeMille, attended by over 600 guests. The event brought together elected officials, the CEO of CABE, university professors, former district administrators, teachers, parents, and students to honor a decade of excellence in bilingual education.

The celebration featured a flag ceremony, inspiring speeches, and vibrant student performances. Several awards were presented to the school, recognizing the extraordinary impact of the VDLI program and the success of the event.

The festivities concluded with a symbolic tree-planting ceremony—representing growth, unity, and the enduring legacy of our program.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this incredible journey. Here's to the next decade of cultural and academic excellence at DeMille! Go Dragons!

Warm Regards,

Christina Hirales
Principal, DeMille Mỹ Việt Language Academy
