bilingual.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0px;\">The Ministry of Education states that students must earn a minimum of 10 credits in French Immersion to earn a \u201c Bilingual Certificate &#8211; Completion for French Immersion Program\u201d upon graduation.\u00a0 Here at St. Mary\u2019s College our teachers have developed a variety of courses that prepare students to exchange ideas and engage in conversations that provide a catalyst for the development of the skills necessary to achieve this certification.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight:

opportunities to travel to French speaking countries and communities with our school.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Students who are enrolled in our French Immersion program
