Abstract
This project focuses on issues facing a French Immersion program in a
dual-track school in Southern Alberta. This study uses information collected from the
following: graduate classes, interviews conducted with my fellow French and English
school teachers, administrators and parents, conferences I have attended, as well as a
review of the latest research conducted in this area. The project includes the following
sections. The first section describes why the French immersion program is important to
me as a student and as a teacher. The second section is an introduction to the French
immersion program. The third section deals with my current teaching position at our
French immersion school, Agnes Davidson. The fourth section describes the issues faced
in Canada's French immersion programs as well as at Agnes Davidson School. The final
section recommends ways of keeping Agnes Davidson's French immersion program alive
and well.
