In first grade, the children learn to read in French before reading in English, while they continue to study all their subjects using the French language as the language of instruction. In grade two, English Language Arts is introduced daily during a 45-minute class with a trained English Language Arts teacher. The curriculum of math, science, social studies, health, and French Language Arts continues to be taught in French up to grade 6. When students complete grade 6, they have a strong academic background and are also bilingual in French and English. There are two classes taught together in French at the middle school, one in French Language Arts and Culture and the second being the World Studies class.
Students also study Spanish, Latin and Japanese.
In addition, Algebra and Geometry are possible options in math. The interdisciplinary approach for English, Art and World Studies includes special themes, seminars, field trips, and a strong focus on essay writing. International travel is an enrichment part of the Immersion Program. These are the French Language and Civilization course, and the French Language and Literature course. In high school students may take one of the immersion courses and the continuation of the third foreign language started at the middle school level.
