Elementary School Programs

French Immersion

This is a rigorous academic program in which the children spend approximately 90-120 minutes of their school day, beginning in kindergarten, learning math and language arts in the French language.  Their goal is to become functionally fluent in French by the time they complete the fifth grade. Students in this program complete all requirements of the BCPS curricula.
