Bonjour, Guten Tag, Buenos días.

The John Burroughs Modern Language Department is comprised of nine faculty members hailing from France, Bolivia, Mexico, Ecuador and the United States. Courses are offered in each of the languages below from 7th grade through Level V AP. Given the consistent fluency of faculty in their respective languages, our courses put as much emphasis on speaking and aural comprehension as on reading and writing. Except for the Level I upper school courses, and the Level V AP courses which meet five days a week, our courses meet four days a week. Besides classroom work, classes do oral, internet, and
computer work in the our Multi-Media language laboratory.
