| ¡HOLA! | BONJOUR! | |
| Greetings from the Foreign Language Department | ||
The Foreign Language Department at Cathedral High School believes that acquiring another language opens doors to new ways of thinking and doing, comparing and contrasting, perceiving and communicating. Through these learning processes, students will discover more themselves, their own language, communicating and making connections.
Language learning has become increasingly important in a global society and helps students understand and assess world events because it brings them closer to the people and culture of that new language.
The knowledge of a language other than English is an essential career asset. Through cultural awareness, students will develop a greater acceptance of others.
At Cathedral High School, the Foreign Language Department offers the following courses:
French
- French 1
- French 2
- French 3
- Honors French 4
- Honors French 5
Spanish
- Spanish 1
- Spanish 2
- Spanish3
- Honors Spanish 4
- Honors Spanish 5
The Cathedral High School Foreign Language Department is in accordance
with the Massachusetts Foreign Languages Curriculum Framework, which has
adopted the National Standards, including Communication, Cultures, Comparisons,
Connections, and Communities. This framework affirms the believe that
students should graduate from high school able to read, write, and converse
in a second language in order to participate in the multilingual, multicultural
interdependent communities of the twenty-first century.
