Cabrini High School continues to live out Mother Cabrini’s powerful words, “The world is too small for me. I want to bring the love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus to all people,” by forming students who can truly engage across cultures, and language is at the heart of that mission. This year’s foreign language awards reflect not only academic excellence, but the development of real- world skills that allow students to communicate, connect, and lead in a global community. In one of the highest honors of Cabrini’s foreign language department, Junior Jordin McFarland earned first place in her French Oral Interview at the Southeastern Louisiana University Foreign Language Festival and received the prestigious
Codofil Scholarship, a fully-funded opportunity to study in Brussels, Belgium this summer, and a true representation of the very spirit of Cabrini’s international mission in action. Cabrini students delivered an outstanding performance at the Southeastern Foreign Language Festival as a whole, dominating the competition and earning top placements
across multiple categories in both French and Spanish. These accomplishments are more than awards; they represent students gaining the confidence and cultural fluency to engage meaningfully with the wider world.
Through language study, Cabrini students are not only excelling academically, they are continuing Mother Cabrini’s legacy, equipped to reach beyond borders with faith, compassion, and purpose.
