The 2022 California Charter School of the Year Award!

At MLC, learning in two languages leads to a world of opportunities.

The Multicultural Learning Center (MLC) is a free TK-8 dual language public charter school with the mission to unite a diverse community of learners where cultural and individual differences are the building blocks of academic, social, and intrapersonal success. MLC is diverse by design – aligning policies, programs, and curriculum to support bi-literacy, social-emotional wellness, family and community engagement, global competency, and social justice. Our values guide our staff and school community in leading this organization and preparing students to become bilingual, biliterate global citizens.

MLC’s values guide our school community in preparing our students to become bilingual, biliterate, global citizens.

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

Our students recognize different perspectives and points of view, valuing diversity and creating inclusive spaces through equitable learning.

Global Citizenry and Bi-Literacy

Our school is a community. Our graduates become adults with self and social awareness, allowing them to communicate ideas in two languages and with diverse audiences.

Social and Environmental Justice

Our students are committed to taking action against injustice. They are active in their local communities and knowledgeable about topics that impact our world.

Social Emotional Competency

Our entire team is compassionate and committed to teaching about social-emotional wellness. We give our students and parents the tools to strengthen their mental health and to be better humans.
