Please ensure students are present and are at school by 8:30 to begin testing on time.

8th Grade - Spanish CBE Letters
Students took the Spanish Credit By Exam (CBE) test in March to determine which high school world languages class they will be placed in next year. This test awards high school credits based on the scores (Spanish I, Spanish II, Spanish III) and means students can be placed in more advanced classes and a shorter track to AP level Spanish in high school. If you want to reject any of the credits and the placement of your student, please return the signed letter by 4/28. No action is required if you accept the credits.
