Just before the holiday break, a delegation from Haiti came to visit Calvert School to see first-hand how we teach and learn.This group of French-speaking visitors included educators, an advisor from the Ministry of Education, and a representative from the Haitian Embassy in Washington, D.C. They are seeking ways in which they can improve their educational system and came to the United States to see different schools in action. We were fortunate to have them come to our school and how fun it was to speak French with them!
Haiti is one of over twenty countries around the world whose official language is French. It is located south of Florida in the Caribbean Sea. This year, International Week's French Day will focus on Haiti. We will learn many things about this island country. Can you find Haiti on the map below?
