Every year in March, high school French students at St. Francis High School take the French National Contest organized by the AATF (the American Association of Teachers of French). This exam has been in existence for 80 years, and this year over 90,000 students took the exam nationwide. The French department at SFHS is very proud to announce that 23 students became “Laureats Nationaux” or National Winners. Of these 23 students, 5 out of the 7 Gold Medal Winners (placing in the 95th percentile nationwide) are Brookfield graduates!
