History

Collège Jeanne-Sauvé was the first French immersion high school in Western Canada. It was created as a result of the efforts of parents to ensure that their children be able to continue in French immersion after Grade 8. The school was finally opened in January 1990 to grades six through twelve. Its name was chosen to recognise the distinct ability that Jeanne Sauvé had to bridge the gap between English and French communities, one of the main goals of French immersion. Mme. Sauvé had to be pushed repeatedly into visiting the school[citation needed], which she finally did a few years before her death.

Feeder Schools

The schools whose students generally enroll in Collège Jeanne-Sauvé are École Saint-Germain, École Julie-Riel, École Marie-Anne-Gaboury, and École Varennes. There are also students who come from French schools.
