French Immersion at Canyon-Lister Elementary School

Hi everyone- thanks to those who have applied for a spot in the Late French Immersion class for September 2023.

We will be offering a spot to all of the Grade 5 students who applied, and an acceptance letter will be coming out shortly from SD8, as well as a letter from me regarding any next steps for CLES registration/transfer forms needed before March 31st (only if you do not currently attend CLES). This makes a full class for next year!

This year we had more applications than spots available, and were unfortunately unable to offer a space to new applicants in Grades 6 or 7. We did not have enough to make a second class this year, but I hope that each year we continue to grow this program as we have done so far.

As we have completed the registration for this year, I will be signing off this Facebook site until we start up the registration notification process again in November. If you have any questions, please contact the school at 250-428-4161.

Merci beaucoup!
