Canadian Parents for French

French Immersion

Cleveland offers an Early French Immersion Program. From Kindergarten to grade 2, classes are taught entirely in French. In grades 3 to 7, French instruction drops from 80%, with the remaining 20% focused on formal English Language Arts.  

Canadian Parents for French (CPF)

Canadian Parents for French (CPF) is a national network of volunteers dedicated to the promotion of French-second-language learning opportunities for young Canadians.  CPF plays an active role in school districts, offering bursaries, resources, support, and cultural experiences in and out of the classroom. 

The CPF BC & Yukon chapter has more than 10,000 members advocating for access to quality French language education across the region and supports over 53,000 French Second Language students. CPF BC & Yukon supports all local chapters through governance, socio-cultural activities, networking, resources and advocacy.
