Need for Proposed Spanish DLI Program Boundary Changes
During its April 25, 2024, board meeting, the Cache County Board of Education voted to approve the creation of two Dual Language Immersion (DLI) magnet elementary schools. It was approved for Spring Creek Elementary to house the French and Spanish DLI programs.
A committee was established to develop recommendations for increasing access to the DLI program for all students and families at the secondary level. Mountain Crest High School is the only high school in the Cache County School District without the DLI program. The committee recommended moving the secondary Spanish DLI program from Ridgeline High School to Mountain Crest High School with a transition plan.
Three new school buildings will be opened in the fall of 2026. With the approved change in school boundaries, transportation needs were addressed on November 20, 2025. The Board of Education approved a transportation option for Spanish DLI students in the Nibley area to South Cache Middle School, where the Spanish DLI program is currently offered and will remain. If utilized, this will be available for the next four years.
The French program, housed at Spring Creek Middle School, will move with the middle school to the new Maple View Middle School. It will also remain at Ridgeline High School.
Affected schools
Mountain Crest High School and Ridgeline High School
Proposed Solution
Beginning with the 2026-2027 school year, we propose to move the secondary Spanish DLI program from Ridgeline High School to Mountain Crest High School.
