Academics

French Immersion

Langstaff Secondary School was one of six schools in the York District to offer a French Immersion curriculum. Upon successful completion of the requisite French Immersion courses, students are eligible to receive a French Immersion Certificate. At the start of the 2025/2026 school year, Langstaff cancelled their French Immersion progam in favor of including IB (International Baccalaurate). Students already enrolled in French Immersion are able to finish their French Immersion.

Advanced Placement

Langstaff Secondary School offers the Advanced Placement programme to its students. The school offers AP courses in Biology, English, French and Math (Calculus and Vectors). Like other AP programmes, students who complete the Grade 12 AP courses are eligible to write the AP exam.
