World Languages

Students who are interested in pursuing a foreign language in middle school should plan on a two-year course of study beginning in seventh grade with Level 1 and continuing with Level 2 in eighth grade. These two years count as the equivalent of Level 1 and 2 at the high school and allow a student the possibility to enroll in Level 3 as a freshman, depending on teacher recommendation. Students may also begin a foreign language by taking Level 1 in high school during any of the four years.
