Does your child need additional periods in French or English? Or would you like to give them the opportunity to go further in science? The CSJV offers a differentiated instruction program. The concept is quite simple: teachers carry out projects in small groups, allowing them to clearly identify the needs and interests of our youngsters. As such, we adapt to the needs and interests of each student.
Further, students can enjoy the benefits of our Daily Activity Programs (DAP – 55 minutes daily), which offers enrichment periods or educational reinforcement. Each activity is given and led by College teachers.

At the CSJV, we often see deer, ducks, and foxes. Since it's located in the heart of Pointe-aux-Prairies Nature Park, it's a long way from convenience stores and fast-food restaurants. Youngsters have the opportunity to study in a peaceful and charming environment. Several walking trails crisscross the grounds adjacent to the College. Biology and science classes become an awesome experience, as they can easily take place in the large nature park.
The College's ideal location lets students get to Montreal's downtown attractions in a few minutes' time (15). As such, students enjoy all the advantages of the big city (museums, shopping centres, cinemas, restaurants, festivals, concerts) and those of the countryside (huge fields, the outdoors, animals, clean air).

Students who register for the program in English will still take French classes and vice versa. This is an added bonus for our international students who will learn not one, but two languages.
