[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, the program is called FLES.[/quote] But this is after school isn't it? And only at certain schools?[/quote] FLES is during the school day and taught by FCPS teachers. We have it at our school - not sure how useful it is.[/quote] FLES is during school and FLEX is after school (and expensive). There's also something called Global Languages (or something like that) at some schools that they are piloting. New program, no idea if it will stick, but it's also after school but free. FLES is a push in instructional until - 30 minutes twice a week where a teacher comes into the class and teaches the language as opposed to immersion where they teach the core subjects in the languages. The difference is between 1 hour a week and about 10 hours a week of instruction in the language. [/quote]
