Middle school students enjoy snowy immersion in French Canada

More than three dozen middle school students traveled to French Canada – Montreal and Quebec City – during the winter break (February 13-17) for an enrichment experience and French language immersion. Besides visiting La Tour Martello, the Archeological Museum of Pointe-à-Callière, the Ice Hotel, the Ice Palace of the Mascotte of the Carnaval de Quebec and Le Bonhomme Carnaval, the students frolicked in the snow and tried out the famous Terrasse Dufferin wooden toboggan run after a pair of massive storms blanketed the region.
Chaperones Jonathan Magdalena, Alex Rodriguez, Eryn Robinson, Elsa Munoz, Dominique McKenna and group leader Maria Eugenia Abrante guided the French students at all levels, sixth, seventh and eighth grades.
