Staff at the P.A. Catholic School Division is celebrating their French Immersion enrolment stats for this year.
With 871 students in the program, Director of Education Lorel Trumier said the number puts them at 28 per cent of total student population.
“Per capita we’re one of the highest rates for French immersion in the province,” she said. “[That’s due] to the willingness of students and families who want second language instruction and our teachers who are really supporting our students.”
The enrolment keeps growing; it was at 25 per cent in 2015.
