English Core Program
In our English Core Program, kindergarten students are speaking and learning the French language during 30% of classroom time. Introducing the French language gradually so students can learn at a more relaxed pace.
For grades 1 through 6, 30% of class time dedicated to French language instruction. Along with French Language Arts; Health, Physical Education, Science and Technology are taught entirely in French, giving our students opportunities to communicate in a broader range of academic study.

Academic Support
RESOURCE Teachers
Academic help is provided to cycles 1 through 3 (Grades 1 to 6) by our resource teachers. The resource teacher provides teachers and students with support. They serve as a facilitator in helping students with different learning needs and provide additional support and strategies to help students achieve in the content areas.
Children work in their class or in the resource room. The resource teacher, in collaboration with the classroom teachers, writes up the individualized education plan (IEP) that will best meet the learning style of the student with the understanding that success is not defined in the same way for everyone.
Homework Assistance
All teachers provide remediation time for their students during the school day. In addition, students who are part of the daycare program receive one hour of homework help each day as part of the BASE program.
