Lares is in the mountains in the country. You're going to be hard-pressed to find a bilingual school there. My son speaks perfect English and he has always attended Spanish schools. He gets Spanish outside home, but everything at home is English. He has no language preference and he's perfectly bilingual.

There are a lot of bilingual private schools in PR, but not sure about any in Lares, PR

I have searched as well but no luck. A Puerto Rican might be able to help. I have found a list of schools for you but am not certain if they are bilingual. Most likely they will be teaching Spanish and English but you can try contacting them to see if they offer bi-lingual services or know of anyone that can do it.I hope I helped.

this is an excerpt from this site below.
Languages

The official languages of the island are Spanish and English. Spanish is the primary language of Puerto Ricans, though English is taught as a second language in schools from elementary levels to high school. As of 2006, an estimated 3,860,120 people use Spanish as their primary language. A large majority of residents living in metropolitan areas are bilingual.

This is another excerpt, so both languages are taught in the schools. Just choose one.

As for their English fluency in general, even in the tourist areas, I've only met a handful of people who speak English beyond a functional or informative level. And as far as I can tell, while English is taught throughout school alongside Spanish, it's the latter that is used in instruction and other school functions. Once I wanted to discuss opinions or anything in depth, Spanish was a necessity.
