Seventh and eighth graders had the chance this week to shadow upper school language classes to consider whether they want to study Arabic, French, or Chinese. Upper school classes hosted middle schoolers, providing them to the chance to see how the language works, and examine different foreign language teaching styles. Our upper school language program augments students’ knowledge of Latin with a second foreign language, which some students start in eighth grade. The foreign language program also organizes international travel over Spring Break, and many upper school students apply for study abroad programs in Europe, the Middle East, or China over the summer vacations.
