FOREIGN LANGUAGE DEPARTMENTThe Foreign Language Department offers a five-year sequential curriculum in French, Latin and Spanish. Students who have successfully completed the middle school curriculum should enter the Year II sequence of the chosen language. The foreign language programs are structured to develop the standards of the Foreign Languages Curriculum Frameworks as promulgated by the Massachusetts Department of Education and the American Classical League’s Standards for Classical Language Learning: Communication, Cultures, Connections, Comparisons and Communities. The study of a foreign language is a cumulative task, demanding daily oral practice and memorization and a constant review of vocabulary and verb forms. Success in learning a foreign language is predicated on this self-discipline and homework is assigned daily that reflects the need for consistent review and practice. Colleges look for at least two years of credit in one foreign language, but more selective universities prefer three to five years of sequential foreign language study. Early Enrollment Program: The Early Enrollment Program is a school/college partnership which offers high school seniors and select juniors an opportunity to earn college credits while they are completing their high school diplomas. Spanish IV AP and Spanish V AP are currently part of the Early Enrollment Program at Rhode Island College. |
