[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The last few years have made if a but hard to tell. Foreign language immersion was tough during the pandemic. WIS was virtual through Oct 2020, then hybrid through spring 2021. By 2022 nearly students had nearly 1.5 years of foreign language learning interrupted, and students in the FAL / SAL program probably felt it worst of all Pre-pandemic I believe most students did achieve some level of fluency, though not all the way through native, academic fluency [/quote] Our child was in SAL pre-pandemic and it worked really well. We could offer some exposure outside of school, but child became at level with peers within two years. I think the issue during pandemic might have been how much exposure you could provide at home, i.e. if there is a nanny/babysitter/au pair that can help with conversational skills in the target language. But overall this program is done very well in my opinion.[/quote]
