Not merely the language of Spain and Mexico, Spanish is also the
language of most of our neighbors in Central and South America. Today
there is an ever-increasing demand for knowledge of Spanish. There are
currently over 45 million Spanish speakers in the United States. Spanish
is used in business and numerous professions/trades both abroad and
domestically.
In our Spanish curriculum, we offer two tracks for students: Honors and College Preparatory.
HONORS SPANISH: Those
students who take Honors Spanish will participate in Pre-AP activities
and assignments; they will move at a faster pace and complete more units
of study. This track is recommended for the highly motivated student.
COLLEGE PREP SPANISH:
Those students who take the college preparatory track will improve
their communication skills in the Spanish language but they will not
move at the same pace as their peers in the honors program. Generally,
students in this track are not recommended for AP Spanish.
For detailed course descriptions, see the Program of Studies.
PLEASE NOTE:
--If
a student would like to change his/her pathway moving up or down a
level, it is imperative that the student receives approval from his/her
teacher.
