Spruce Grove Composite High School

German

German as a Second Language

Come and learn German in an interactive and communicative environment. You may participate in one, two, three or all four levels of the German Program offered at SGCHS. 

English is a "sister language" of German, so learning to speak and write German can be as simple as saying "Volkswagen"!

Travel Opportunities

Spruce Grove Composite High School participates in an exchange program which is available to students taking German. A student may take part in a three-month exchange with a German student studying English.

Other travel opportunities are open to students of the German Group. Contact your German teacher for further information.
