NYC's French Dual Language Programs in public schools are open to all families interested in the French language, regardless of their own personal backgrounds. Speaking French is not a prerequisite for Anglophone parents. Students in public schools are taught classes in both French and English. Subjects such as Math, Science or History are taught in French so that it becomes a language of instruction rather than just a foreign language.
To find out more on current schools that offer French Dual Language Programs, visit the following websites for more information about bilingual schools which offer French.
