BIENVENUE, SELAM, HUAN YING, CHAA-PHE, BIENVENIDOS, SALVE
I’m excited to introduce you to the International Student Program of Abbotsford Christian School.
ACS is a vibrant educational community where students grow in both knowledge and character. We are committed to high academic standards and offer a wide variety of educational programs that are taught from a Christian perspective. We are proud of the fact that many ACS graduates go on to attend leading universities throughout North America.
Whether you’re interested in elementary, middle or secondary enrolment, we provide a unique program for our international students and accept students who are interested in experiencing Canadian culture and developing their English skills, as well as students who are interested in graduating from a Canadian high school.
Our experience with international students has helped us to recognize and meet their unique needs—whether it’s adjusting to a new culture, understanding a new educational system, learning to communicate well in English, or simply making friendships. We ensure that our students receive the support they need, not only to be successful academically but also emotionally and spiritually. Our International Student Coordinator and English Language Learning teachers work hard to ensure the success of each of our students.
International students play an integral role in the student body culture at ACS. We’re excited to celebrate the diversity of cultures while we grow in a deeper understanding of global issues and perspectives. We have been welcoming international students into our community for well over ten years—students from such varied countries as South Korea, Sudan, China, Japan, Spain, Brazil, Mexico, South Africa, and Germany.
We’re happy to be a part of your new adventure as you take steps to study in a new country. You will certainly learn so much about yourself, God’s world, and his people!
If you have questions or would like to learn more about our program, please contact me.
