Course Description

French 2 builds upon the foundation that was established in French 1. This course empowers students by helping them realize the advantages of mastering another language—equipping them with the ability to communicate with confidence, experience other cultures and countries, and to participate in our global society. Whether the destination is another country, a better understanding of people and other cultures, or new avenues for career options, language takes you there. This course is packed with useful educational enhancements, such as “click-on” audio features, reinforcing videos, and fun interactivities to help students maximize their learning.

Carnegie Credits Explained: Our Approach vs. Trimester Credits

Carnegie Credit System
Excel High School follows the Carnegie Credit system, a widely recognized method of measuring student progress based on instructional hours. A single Carnegie credit reflects approximately 120 hours of coursework, typically completed over a full academic year.

Carnegie Credit vs. Trimester Credit
While Carnegie credits are awarded based on total hours over a year, trimester credits divide the school year into three terms. In a trimester system, students complete courses in shorter, intensive sessions, often earning partial credits (e.g., 0.33 or 0.5 per term). In contrast, Excel’s use of Carnegie credits ensures students have ample time to engage deeply with the material and develop a well-rounded understanding at a consistent pace.
