Language Immersion Schools

<p>Do any of you attend language immersion schools? If not, do you at least have multiple classes in a foreign language? It's always been my dream to attend one of these schools, but I don't know of any that exist in my area.</p>

No, but what are language immersion schools?</p>

<p>Multiple classes as in many different languages in courses (french, spanish, german, etc)? Then probably what the average school has: Japanese, German, Spanish, French..</p>

<p>I think he means that other classes are actually taught in that language, such as a school that teaches everything in Spanish, or maybe Math and History in German, etc.</p>

<p>^Yes. This would be more than just a class learning the language. You'd walk into your US History class, and your teacher would say, "¡Hola! ¿Cómo están? Tenemos un día muy especial hoy."</p>

<p>Though language immersion would be nice, it would be cool if high schools offered more language selection in general. My school offers only four years of only Spanish, and the curriculum isn't that great. That doesn't give me very many choices.</p>

<p>My school (in the upper grades) only has Spanish, French, and Italian. BUT, in the lower grades it's becoming sort of a language immersion school with Spanish.</p>

<p>And around where I live, we have a French immersion school (you don't have to know French when you begin), and a German immersion school (you DO have to know German when you begin).</p>
