French at CRLS

The CRLS French program is offered at six levels, French 1 through AP French Language. In all levels the curriculum is based on the idea of proficiency, a student’s ability to communicate and understand the language functionally. The program integrates all aspects of foreign language study through a process-oriented approach in compliance with ACTFL‘s Oral Proficiency and the 5Cs of the National Standards for Foreign Language Learning for the 21st Century. Cultural competency is also reinforced by exposure to French and Francophone worlds through various oral/aural exercises, written assignments, film clips and various media resources. Students also gain a historical perspective on French and Francophone cultures.
