Magnet Program - World Languages

Scarborough World Language Magnet Program serves students who live outside our address zone. Our magnet students have a strong interest in studying languages and commit to taking 5 on-campus language credits along with Dual Language Social Studies classes.

Why study a world language? A multilingual person has the ability to communicate and interact with more people from around the world! Learning a new language gives students, the skills and knowledge to function competently in a global society. Students in a World Language Program experience higher academic, cognitive, social and future benefits when compared to students who participate in all English classes.

Join the Spartan Magnet Family and begin your World Language learning journey!
