Catholic board: The board’s current FSL page describes Core French from Grades 1 to 12 and does not advertise a French Immersion stream. Confirm current programming directly with the board.
Transportation: Eligible French Immersion students may use centralized community bus stops. Parents or guardians are responsible for travel to and from those stops.
