Important Policy Information: All Middle School students (grades 6-8) must earn a minimum of a B- or 80% in order to receive credit for a High School language class.  Middle School students enrolled in Spanish classes are earning High School credits early.  In order to ensure that students can demonstrate proficiency with High School level content, Middle School students will only receive credit on their official High School transcript for classes in which they have earned the minimum final grade of B-.  If a Middle School student does not pass with a B- or higher, then he/she will retake the course until a B- is earned.  This will not interfere with their High School course requirements, because by taking Spanish is Middle School, students are earning credits early than necessary.  After every chapter, students receive a progress report.  I will always let you know when these are coming home and will remind your by e-mail as well.  If your student is not earning a B- after each chapter, it will be important for your student to retest until that is the case.  I will also be sure to e-mail you personally if I am worried about your student's progress toward this goal.  Please e-mail me with any questions!

This website is here to help students and parents by providing information about class work, homework, projects, and curriculum resources.  The above tabs contain the following information:


Documents Tab: This tab will have documents that may be helpful to both students and parents.  All handouts and rubrics given in class will be available.  If a student needs a handout for homework, I will note in the assignment description the title of the document so students and parents can find these easily. 

Events Tab: This tab is where students will find their homework assignments.  This should not be their only resource for remembering homework, but will usually be updated on Mondays for the week.  Assignments may change due to class progress.

Links Tab: This is where I will post links to websites that will help students.
