1 ELEMENTARY FRENCH IMMERSION Saskatoon Public Schools offers a Kindergarten to Grade 8 elementary French Immersion program. French Immersion students learn French and English and follow provincial curricula. Students generally enter the program in Kindergarten or Grade 1. The language of instruction is primarily French in Kindergarten to Grade 2. Utilizing the provincial curricula for early learners, our French Immersion program maintains a strong focus on student identity and language development while fostering students’ achievement in multiple subjects. The English Language Arts program is not formally introduced until Grade 3.
In Grades 3-8, students apply their literacy and language skills to support and further their learning. Once students have learned to read in French, they apply this skill as they continue to explore the language and build vocabulary, communicate orally with purpose, and write to explain their thoughts and learning. The ability to speak, read, and write is applied in all subject areas and enables students to continue to learn the French language in the context of curricular subjects. Saskatoon Public Schools has seven dual-track elementary schools offering parallel English and French programs. The program schools are:
• École Alvin Buckwold School • École College Park School • École Dundonald School • École Forest Grove School • École Lakeview School • École River Heights School • École Silverspring School
Beginning in Kindergarten, École Henry Kelsey and École Victoria offer a single-track program where only French Immersion is offered.
2 COLLEGIATE FRENCH IMMERSION French Immersion at the collegiate level builds on students’ established language skills while also building competency in curricular subjects. To maintain their French Immersion status in high school and to be recognized as bilingual on their diploma, students are required to complete a minimum of 12 credits in French in Grades 10, 11 and 12.
