When selecting a foreign language for the school, Cresthill Academy considered Spanish, French, German and Mandarin.
Ultimately, we selected Spanish and Mandarin Chinese as our schools' early foreign languages of choice. We strive to deliver foreign language exposure in an authentic environment and experience, by hiring native language speakers to enrich our learner's foreign language exposure and experience.
