French Immersion is a French-language learning program available at Windsor Secondary. It is designed for non-French-speaking students who wish to attain a high level of proficiency in both official languages. Students enrolled in the secondary French Immersion program come from both early and late French Immersion elementary programs.

The goal of the North Vancouver School District's French Immersion Program is to produce well-educated, functionally bilingual students.  Students in the program achieve a level of learning in all subject areas equivalent to that achieved by students in the English program.

French Immersion students develop strong communication skills in both French and English. They also develop a knowledge and understanding about the structure of language that may enable them to learn other languages more easily.
