At A.Y. Jackson, students are invited to explore and celebrate French language and culture through various experiences, both at school and beyond.
Here are some previous examples of these opportunities:
Students may participate in an individual OCDSB student exchange program in their grade 10 or grade 11 academic year. These exchanges are usually for a two or three-month period.
Information is available from November through January, and interested students should check in Guidance or the French Office, or on the OCENET (Ottawa-Carleton Education Network) website. Please note that students who would like to engage in an OCDSB exchange program must apply by February for the following year's exchange.
Participating students must be achieving academic success and be willing to enhance their linguistic skills and experience another culture. The Principal's recommendation is also necessary.
