French Immersion Program Information

French Immersion is one of four official school programs recognized in the province of Manitoba. The goal of French Immersion is to "develop proud, confident, engaged, plurilingual global citizens." (Manitoba Education and Early Childhood Learning). 

Most instruction is delivered in French with the exception of English Language Arts and (in later grades) electives.
