Language Forges Brain Pathways; Wellington Is Leader In Early Childhood Language Exposure

The regular, high-level use of more than one language may actually improve early brain development. That is what Newsweek reported in its August 7 edition, and it is a concept The Wellington School has embraced since our founding in 1982. The Wellington School has been teaching a world language to our youngest learners as a regular part of their early childhood learning experience since the school’s inception.

"Because our students start learning a language so early, they are able to become truly proficient in whichever language they choose to study," said Middle School French teacher Ms. Megan Wittmann. "The pathways are formed so early in their brains, which helps them with language acquisition."
