Programs

The following programs are offered at St. Matthew School:

ENGLISH PROGRAM

The English Program follows the program of studies outlined by Alberta Learning and Edmonton Catholic Schools.

UKRAINIAN BILINGUAL PROGRAM

The Ukrainian bilingual program is a partial immersion program. The core or basic subjects are taught in English. In this program the students continue to develop English language skills and learn Ukrainian for up to 50% of the school day. The students are also exposed to many traditional and religious aspects of the culture throughout the year. St. Matthew has offered the Ukrainian bilingual education since the Bilingual program’s inception in l974.

An exciting new optional program is being unveiled at St. Matthew for our Ukrainian Bilingual Program come September, 2009. This program is designed for the serious dancer and parallels sports academies in Junior and Senior High Schools. The Ukrainian Dance Academy will only be available to a select number of students and remains as an option to students enrolled at St. Matthew School.

FRENCH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE

French is offered to both the students in the English Program and Ukrainian Bilingual program in grades 4 to 6.
