Beginning in kindergarten, students are immersed in their chosen target language of French, Spanish, Japanese or Chinese. My daugher, who majored in French, continued with French and Spanish in highschool and her fisrt year of college, where among other things, she is tutoring other students in French.
F.L.I.C.S is a great school for kids who have an open mind about learning. Because if know that your child does not listen or has innapropriate behavor this school is not for you. But when my daughter's friends leave the school she has to understand that they probably didn't get the language or didn't study. You have to be willing to learn anything and open their mind and can't act stubborn. This is my daughter's 8th year she has been there since kindergarten and takes Japanese and loves it and so do I. Her G.P.A is higher than a 3.5 and is looking forward for a great future for her. This is an exellent school with great teachers who share their international culture and language and their English language Arts and Mathematic teachers are great also. I highly reccomend this school to bright open- minded parents and children.
The philosophy at FLICS is an excellent one, but with all Detrot Publics schools I would advise parents to get involved, and seek out resources at home to continue their learning. Make an effort to change the things that you feel should be different. Instead on complaining about staff or teachers abilities, as a parent, volunteer, and provide your service where you see areas of lack. Attend the L.S.C.O. meetings with an open mind, and the Board meetings to express your ideals or concerns. You make a different! You meet the challenge! Do your homework as a parent, and research for the answers that they need. Provide some resources to help educate your child(ren). Remember it takes a village to raise a child, that's real talk...become a part of the solution, and not the problem!
