Italian will be part of the curriculum of study in the L'Anse Creuse Public Schools this coming Fall. The five courses of Italian language will be part of the curriculum at L'Anse Creuse High and L'Anse Creuse High School-North with an enrollment of nearly 130 students.

A multi-year Memorandum of Understanding between the Foundation N.O.I. (Nuovi Orizzonti Italiani) and the L'Anse Creuse Public schools will ensure a long term commitment to the program and its success.

L'Anse Creuse Public Schools System services a large population of Italian-American students and the N.O.I. Foundation, as well as L'Anse Creuse, are happy to provide the opportunity to them and their peers to learn about the beauty of Italy, its language and its rich culture.

The Italian classes are co-financed by the Foundation N.O.I. and have been made possible thanks to the efforts of the Board of Directors of the NOI, the office of the Superintendent of the District, Dr. Jackie Johnston, its Coordinator of courses, Dr. Ed Okinowski, State Representative Anthony Forlini and with the full support and collaboration of the Consul of Italy, Dr. Maria Luisa Lapresa.
