World Language

In addition to developing communication skills in another language, Syosset’s World Language Department works to inspire joy, cultural literacy and global awareness in our students.  Learners build proficiency in the target languages and become better communicators in English, as well. Teachers create environments and experiences that engage students in the work of language learning.  We encourage the ongoing development of proficiency, from the novice through advanced levels. We hope to inspire our students to be lifelong learners of the target languages.  

Syosset’s World Language Department creates opportunities for students to use their language skills in real-world contexts.  We offer a breadth of language choices, with pathways to success for all learners. Teachers lead efforts to collaborate and grow our program, along with support from administrators, the community and parents.  Our instruction and assessments align with our vision.
