The National Spanish Exam

It's happening this year! For realsies! The National Spanish Exam is an online assessment that gauges both academic achievement (vocabulary and grammar knowledge) and language proficiency (reading and listening) for second language learners. The testing schedule is as follows:

  • Achievement - Grammar and Vocabulary
    • Seventh Grade - Tuesday - 8:30 to 9:20
    • Eighth Grade - Thursday - 11:01 to 11:51
  • Proficiency - Reading and Listening
    • Seventh Grade - Wednesday 12:35 to 1:20
    • Eighth Grade - Friday 11:01 to 11:51
It's vital that all students bring a pair of headphones  for the Proficiency portion of the exam in order to provide a quiet testing environment and to allow students to go at their own pace.
