Foreign Language

Spanish and Chinese Language Preparation

We offer different levels of foreign language preparation. Each course gives students the practice and exposure to different foreign languages. Taught by experienced faculty members, students begin to develop: tense rules, building stronger vocabulary, grammar review, work on crafting clearer speaking and written work. Each course has a specific curriculum tailored to the respective level of the course.

  • Spanish / Chinese Level 1 is for students who are learning the language for the 1st year at their school site. Most schools will offer Level 1 in 7th or 8th grade.
  • Spanish / Chinese Level 2 is for students who are learning the language for the 2nd year at their school site. Most schools will offer Level 2 in 8th – 10th grade.
  • Spanish / Chinese Level 3 is for students who are learning the language for the 3rd year at their school site. Most schools will offer Level 3 in 9th – 11th grade.
  • Spanish / Chinese Level 4 is for students who are learning the language for the 4th year at their school site. Most schools will offer Level 4 in 10th – 12th grade.
  • AP Spanish / AP Chinese is for students who have mastered the language and are ready to take the highest level of a foreign language at their school sites.  Most schools will offer the AP level in 10th – 12th grade.

We suggest students take the course level best matching the level your child will be enrolling in at their school site.
