English/French Immersion Programs

  • Students can register in the French Immersion Program at the kindergarten level or at the beginning of Cycle 1.  At any other time during their elementary schooling, they can register only if they are coming from a French immersion program or a French school.
  • A child registered in the French Immersion Program is expected to complete the current year in the program.
  • At the end of a school year, parents can choose to move their child to the English program.
  • A change during the course of the year is made only when there are special circumstances.  All partners would discuss the individual case and a decision would be taken in the best interest of the child.
