Any student who has no background in taking a world language or would like to take a new language should indicate their preferences in the "Level 1 Language Preference" block

Language 1 Level Preference

Any student (8th grade and up) with a language background who would like to continue in that language, please select your language preference by completing only the language proficiency test that applies to your preference.

Before clicking your language, be aware that the purpose of this test is to determine the level where you will be able to do your best.

With that in mind, please do not use any outside sources, including dictionaries, help from friends or family, or online translation software to complete the test. Simply do your best! If you are misplaced, you may have to change your placement at the beginning of the year, which can impact your overall schedule and affect your choices in other departments. For the writing/speaking prompts, there are some suggested topics but you do not have to respond to all of them. Simply write/speak using what you already know.
