English as a second language
Red Deer Public has welcomed students from around the world for many years. We have partner schools in France, Germany, Japan, and China. In addition exchange students and new Canadians from all parts of the world make up our ESL classes. In addition, you are assured of receiving instruction at your level, to meet your needs, while taking academic courses with your Canadian peers. Students will take one or two 70 periods of ESL per day depending on need. After a student is accepted into our program, we will send you an Online ESL test to help us decide that student should be placed.
- ÌÇÐÄVlog does not require the TOEFL for entrance into the International Student Program
- ESL is available in grades 9 through 12
