The preschool and kindergarten are licensed by the State of California and are nationally accredited by the NAYEC. Classes are taught by certified teachers who are native speakers of the language spoken in class. An eclectic mix of learning methods are used, and the curriculum is structured and developed based upon the changing needs of the children. Resource teachers provide enrichment programs in art, drama, music, yoga, and physical education. The school's goal is to support children to become a happy and confident students who can read, write, and speak two languages, and who are well-prepared to succeed as they move on to first grade.

The afterschool Spanish program welcomes students from age three to 14, and teaches Spanish by immersion for beginners through advanced levels. Students are grouped by age and experience in Spanish, and attend classes once or twice per week. In addition to speaking, reading, and writing in Spanish, students learn the history and geography of Mexico, Latin America, and other Spanish speaking countries, and celebrate Mexican holidays and traditions.

During the summer, BLA offers five weekly Spanish immersion camps during which kids can explore a Latin American country through various activities that include arts and crafts, music, and cooking.
