The French program enriches students' reading and expression skills. It expands literary and artistic culture, trains the mind and develops imagination and literary insight.

Language structure is just as important as the study of literature, deepening students’ understanding of texts and improving their ability to express themselves. The program focuses on four study areas: Poetry, Philosophical literature through the press, Novels and storytelling, and Theatre.

The goal of philosophical education is to develop in each student a thoughtful approach to analysis and reasoning. This study is grounded in an historical overview of ancient and modern philosophers and applied to modern-day challenges and questions.

Depending on their proficiency in English, students are divided into groups by level. 

For students who have received their entire middle school and high school education at Rochambeau, the minimum level required is B2 or C1. The students have the following options:

• International Baccalaureate Option (OIB)
• Advanced Placement English Literature preparation
• Foreign Language and Literature

The language program structure is common to all languages taught. Focusing on oral communication, it reflects the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages CEFR.

Priority is given to digital technology, allowing students to progress with the help of teachers both inside and outside the classroom.

Spanish:

Students are divided into groups according to their level.  There are three groups: Spanish, Advanced Spanish and Honors Spanish. Entry into a group is determined by placement tests. 

• Spanish: This course corresponds to the National French Curriculum. 
• Advanced Spanish: Although the content is similar to the Spanish group, this course is meant for students who are capable of progressing at a faster pace. Vocabulary and grammatical concepts are acquired more quickly and students study themes that reference the many varied cultures from different Hispanic countries. 
• Honors Spanish: The course is designed for students who have a more in-depth knowledge of the Spanish language. The "Honors" level allows students to refine and broaden their oral and written communication and expression skills. 

German:

As their required language elective, students may choose the German language. The program is based on themes that help develop students' linguistic oral and written skills as well as decoding the country's complex cultural references (e.g. power structures and forms, the concept of progress, etc.).
 

The program enables students to understand the evolution of societies, cultures and policies, demonstrating how past and present choices influence the world today.

10th grade history and geography focuses on how the modern world developed from antiquity and the Middle Ages to the 18th century. Students study the environment, socio-economic progress and the mobility of different peoples within nations.

Civic education helps students to become responsible citizens, conscious of both their rights and responsibilities. They explore different themes in each year of high school:

• 10th grade: “Freedom”,
• 11th grade: “Society”, and
• 12th grade: ”Democracy”

Earth and Life Sciences (SVT):

The program covers four main areas: Creation and transformation of matter; Motion and interaction; Waves and signals; and Transformation of energy. With useful concepts from everyday life, the program focuses on experimental practice.

Mathematics:

Digital science and technology:

The digital science and technology program covers the main concepts of digital science, teaching students how to use digital technologies in their daily or professional lives, with thought and reason. The themes covered include the internet, social networking and digital photography.

Rochambeau PE teachers come from diverse backgrounds, nationalities, and have differing training methods and experience. Their human qualities and open mindedness are just as important as their formal training.

French physical education programs are based on principles including equality of the sexes, cultures and origin. Students are divided into groups based on activities. In many cases, teams or groups are mixed since there are very different levels and strengths in racket or ball sports, gymnastics and swimming as well as track and field sports. 

Physical education offer students the chance to practice a physical activity that develops the pleasure of taking an active part in sports. The program enables everyone to develop their motor skills, learn to prepare and train, improve social behavior and develop their health.
