INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGES CLASSES: Grades 1-8
The Greater Essex County District School Board is pleased to offer our International Languages program for the 2022-23 school year. This program is available to students in Grades 1-8 from across Windsor and Essex County.
Your child does not need a background in a particular language to be able to take advantage of this unique opportunity to acquire a second or third language. International Languages classes will run on Saturdays from 9:30 am - 12:00 pm throughout the year, beginning in October.
Classes are offered based on student enrolment numbers. Any language may be offered for which there are 25 students and an available instructor. Languages potentially offered include:
Albanian Arabic German Gujarati Hindi Italian Korean Mandarin
