In partnership with La Fondation Louisiane, each year CODOFIL recognizes graduating seniors from Louisiana high schools who have demonstrated a steadfast commitment to the French language. These seniors have excelled in a high-level French course, marking the culmination of years of efforts in their pursuit to master a language that is at the heart of Louisiana’s rich culture. The CODOFIL Award provides recognized seniors a certificate and $500.
