French Immersion

Our French Immersion program offers students the opportunity to participate in World Language Immersion, a program that integrates second language learning into various subject areas. Children will follow the regular school curriculum, including an English language arts block (reading, writing, spelling) taught by a certified English-speaking teacher. The rest of the school day, including math, science, physical education and art, is conducted entirely in French by qualified elementary school teachers using repetition, pictures, gestures, experiences and other appropriate means to help students understand content area instruction in selected subjects as well as in target language arts.

We start the immersion process at a young age, when children's minds are more open. Research has shown that students in Immersion programs, on average, perform better on standardized tests than do their non-immersion peers. Students who begin immersion are encouraged to remain in French immersion classes through 8th grade.

Students must be in Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, or First grade to apply for the French Immersion program.
