The English Language in the Congrégation de Notre Dame of Montreal from the 17th Century
|
| Abstract |
Founded by Marguerite Bourgeoys in 1671, the Sisters of the Order of the Congregation of Notre Dame was the leading educators of Catholic girls, both Francophones and Anglophones, in Quebec until the 1960s. In 1823, English was given place on the official program of studies in the schools operated by the Order, and the author notes that "the formal introduction of ... the English language found English-speaking pupils and English-speaking teachers awaiting this recognition of their mother-tongue." Several of the Order's boarding schools, such as Montreal's Villa Maria, had English-speaking sections.
