Student Support

Here to Help

For special needs, The French American Academy is proud to provide a comprehensive approach for students who demonstrate language, educational or social challenges.

ESL-FSL intervention (English or French as a Second Language)

Language Support teachers on our team provide supplemental instruction in French or English.

ESL classes are designed to teach English to non-native English speaking students at a pace and/or level conducive to each student’s ability. Non-English speaking students are accepted at every grade.

FSL support is available to English-speaking students starting in Kindergarten and up. (In early grades, the child will be immersed at around 80% in French and should not need any supplemental exposure.

Instructional Student Support

A student may need temporary or long term help in reading, writing and math. The instructional support program is here to reinforce the student in his/her academic learning.

The team is made up of the director, Student Support Coordinator, French and English teachers responsible for dealing with the difficulties.
