Exemplary French Program, with Honors, 2016-2018

Arlington profsNous félicitons notre collègue extraordinaire, Catherine Ritz,  et ses collègues d’Arlington, dont le programme a été nommé exemplaire par l’AATF nationale. La lettre officielle: « It is my pleasure to congratulate you, and to inform you that our Committee has unanimously accorded to Arlington Public Schools the award of Exemplary French Program, with Honors, 2016-2018, sponsored by the American Association of Teachers of French…  We were especially impressed by your strong numbers, your clearly defined goals, and your World Language Internship.  Your French Week sounds appetizing, and the home stay in Québec an incentive to students.  Your program offers much as a model for other public schools, and schools of all types! »  Bravo, Catherine!

Voici, de gauche à droite, toute l’équipe: Paula Nicholas (Middle School French), Anne Zachary (Middle School French), JoLinda Alderuccio (High School French), Véronique Lahey (High School French), Catherine Ritz (Director of World Languages & High School French). Bravo à toute l’équipe!

Waring

Nous félicitons également notre collègue, Christiane Taylor, de la Waring School à Beverly, qui a été reconnue à l’unanimité par l’AATF nationale pour son programme de français exemplaire, avec distinction (2016-2018), reconnaissance donnée à seulement huit écoles aux États-Unis!

Le comité AATF a été impressioné particulièrement par

• the innovative approach to teaching, and especially the immersion approach and regular performances of skits
• the many travel opportunities offered to students
• the consistently strong results of the school on the national French contest, le Grand Concours, and standardized tests
• the enthusiastic dedication of French teachers to their work
 
Un grand bravo! à Christiane et à ses collègues!
