Languages

Learning a language empowers you to think, act and speak in diverse cultural settings and to move from one cultural setting to another with confidence. 

French 10/20/30

Prerequisite:  None for 10-level; 10-3Y or Grade 9 French for 20-level; 20-3Y for 30 level 

In French, students will be taught to understand and express in French, messages related to your personal, educational,  and imaginative language functions as well as to build strategies to develop your vocabulary, language structures and cultural understandings.

Spanish 10/20/30 

Prerequisite:  None for 10-level; 10-3Y or Grade 9 French for 20-level; 20-3Y for 30 level 

The Spanish Language and Culture three-year Program is intended for those students with little or no previous experience in Spanish. There is a focus on all four skills necessary to communicate in a new language: speaking, writing, listening and reading. The program is designed to promote Spanish language learning through a variety of linguistic and cultural experiences.
