RK Publishing Shines at CONGRÉS ACPI 2024: Highlights from an Inspiring Conference in Regina, SK

What an incredible few days we spent at L’Immersion: un horizon sans frontières – Congrès ACPI 2024 Regina, Saskatchewan November 7 to 9. This year’s sold out conference brought together over 700 attendees from across Canada to celebrate, learn, and innovate in the field of French immersion. From meaningful interactions to insightful sessions and keynote speakers, we were thrilled to be part of this dynamic event!

RK Publishing had a strong presence in the exhibit hall, where our booth quickly became a hub of energy and enthusiasm. Throughout the conference, we had the pleasure of connecting with educators from coast to coast, each dedicated to advancing French immersion in their schools and classrooms. These conversations offered invaluable insights, fresh perspectives, and shared goals—all essential to fueling our mission to support and inspire young readers in immersion programs.

One of the highlights was our educational presentation on our latest high-low series, Mission possible. Led by Johanne Proulx and Lise Tremblay, this session was attended by over 25 participants. Johanne and Lise guided attendees through the series’ innovative approach, designed to offer an accessible and engaging reading experience for students of varying proficiency levels. The session sparked thoughtful discussions and was packed with practical takeaways, inspiring many attendees to consider new ways to address diverse literacy needs in their own classrooms.

Congratulations to our two conference winners – Nathalie Fournier from Prairie South School Division who won the booth draw for a Mission possible classroom pack.  And Jill Leblanc from Prince Edward Island Department of Education who won the ACPI Conference prize of a 1-year Je lis ! Online licence. Félicitations Nathalie et Jill!

Reflecting on the event, we’re grateful for the connections and inspiration that ACPI 2024 provided. It was a joy to witness the energy and commitment shared among Canadian French immersion professionals, and we’re excited to see these ideas in action as educators bring new resources and strategies into their classrooms.

We are already looking ahead to ACPI 2025, which will be held in stunning Banff, Alberta. We can't wait to see everyone there and continue our shared mission of advancing French immersion education across Canada.

Thank you to everyone who visited our booth, attended our presentation, and made ACPI 2024 such a success. See you in Banff!
