FLICS, the Foreign Language Immersion and Cultural Studies school in
Detroit, is moving from its building off I-75 near Clay Street to
northwest Detroit. For almost two decades, more than 6,000 children
from kindergarten through fifth grade have learned Japanese, Mandarin,
French and Spanish.
According to the story:
The unusual and popular school is moving across town, into the old
Renaissance High School building. In the fall, FLICS will expand
through the eighth grade, almost doubling its enrollment to about 700.
The school's new location on the city's edge has increased its
attraction to suburban families. About 100 children from places like
Royal Oak, Farmington, Southfield and Oak Park have applied to attend
next year.
