How does the department/program ensure that it is congruent with the divisions/schools mission?
Just like the school’s mission statement, the Upper School French & Spanish Department believes that, as a student-centered, proficiency-based program, it also provides a welcoming and nurturing learning environment that recognizes the unique worth of each student in an effort to develop individual talents. Through the purposeful promotion of the ACTFL Standards for Foreign Language Learning, Preparing for the 21st Century (communication, culture, connections, comparisons and communities) the Upper School French & Spanish Department sincerely fosters caring, effective citizens of the world.
