WHHS Foreign Language Department

Language and communication are the basis for all learning.  Reading and speaking in another language opens a wider world for students and allows them to experience the diversity of other cultures. 

The Department of Modern Languages at Walnut Hills High School uses a variety of learning experiences to provide students with communication skills in a second language.   The Department teaches a standards-based curriculum through speaking and listening activities in the Language Lab, research and communication with native speakers in the Computer Lab, and video and text materials.
