Spanish Class Summary 

Spanish is required for all students in Kindergarten-6th grade. In 7th & 8th grade, Spanish becomes an elective. The K-5th grade classes meet once per week for 30 minutes, 6th grade meets once per week for 40 minutes, and 7/8 meets two times per week for 55 minutes per class. Each class begins with the “Pizarra De La Semana” or Board of the week, and includes a word and phrase of the week, number of the week, color or shape of the week, and the calendar.

All 7th grade students are enrolled in Spanish 1 which can also include 8th grade students who did not complete Spanish 1 the year prior.  Spanish 2 class is an advanced course that allows 8th Grade students more of an immersion-type setting.  Hispanic culture is offered as well, and though not required, is highly suggested for both Spanish 1 and Spanish students.
