The Middle School World Language department aims to focus on connecting with the greater community to provide opportunities for our language students to connect classroom learning to meaningful life opportunities. WL curricula should extend beyond the classroom and offer additional cultural elements to enhance student learning.

Each language is partnering up with schools within the US and around the globe to increase our understandings and perspectives while enhancing our language abilities in the process.
