Teaching Bilingual Students is Our Passion

School Founder

The Jump Story: Our Passion, Our Purpose – 20 years in the making!

Jackie Sanin, a graduate of Kean University, is a leader in bilingual education and a dedicated advocate for early childhood language immersion. As a daughter of Cuban parents, Jackie’s journey into bilingual education began after she became a mother, driven by a desire to connect her children to their linguistic and cultural heritage. This personal mission led her to establish Jump! Immersion School, a program designed to set children on a path to academic and personal success through immersive language learning taught in a nurturing environment.

Jackie’s vision came to life in 2004 when she launched a Spanish-language program for families in New Jersey. Since then, Jump! Immersion School has grown steadily, expanding to four campuses and including an academically rigorous Mandarin track. Today, with over 20 years of dedication to bilingual education, Jump! Immersion School is recognized as a leader in language immersion, helping children develop cultural awareness, achieve academic excellence and lay the foundation for lifelong success.

Jackie’s expertise and commitment to educational excellence have been instrumental in building programs that empower young learners. Under her leadership, Jump! Immersion School continues to set the standard for bilingual education, equipping students with the skills they need to reach their full potential in a multilingual world.
