Bonjour! My name is MR. PARRACK and I am excited to be your French teacher 
this year! I will be teaching at Chisholm Trail in the morning, and at
Ridgeview in the afternoon.

I have been teaching French for nearly 20 years, at middle school, 
high school and university.  I am from Lubbock, TX, and I went to college at
Texas Tech and UT. I have lived in the Austin area since 1996.

I have travelled extensively throughout France as well as Quebec (French
Canada).  I have studied French linguistics (the structure of language) and
second language acquisition (how people learn a foreign language), and I also
have a solid background in French literature and culture.

I will remind you that French is a HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT course, and you can
expect the class will be intense and fast-paced at times.  You will be
required to show the MATURITY and RESPONSIBILITY necessary to succeed in an
advanced-level class.

TUTORIALS: 
I will be available for tutorials after school Tuesday at Ridgeview and
before school Wednesday at Chisholm Trail. Please tell me the day
before you would like to attend. Click on SCHEDULE & TUTORIALS in the side
menu for times.

French IA: 
Upon passing French IA, you will be eligible to take French IB. Successfully
completing IA and IB will give you one year of high school French credit.

French IB: 
Upon passing French IB, you will be eligible to take second-year French in
high school.

Personal Responsibility

In this class, you will be accountable for your learning and your
success. You will also be accountable for your actions, and you will treat
yourself and others with respect. When you show respect there will be
opportunities for reward. When you are disrepectful there will be 
consequences.

In order for you to be successful in French class, you will be responsible for
copying and studying your vocabulary and reviewing the day’s lessons at home
on a daily basis. You will also be required to participate in class in order
to benefit yourself and your classmates. Language is communication and it
takes more than one person to communicate!
