Language Placement Exam Details
Language placement exams are scheduled for next Friday, May 29th at 10am. Students should take a language placement exam if they selected a language as their first choice elective and speak the language they will be taking as a seventh grader OR if they took the selected language at their elementary school. The language exam will allow students to test out of the level one language and into a higher level language class. An additional email will be sent to all students who are taking a language class next week. Click here to sign up for a language placement exam.
