世界通用语言

哥斯达黎加2023

Our world has become smaller due to expanded communications and increased global travel and business opportunities. 作为一个社会, we need to realize that knowledge of a second language and an understanding of other cultures are vital in today’s world. 学生需要做好成为全球社会积极公民的准备. 学习语言提供了一个有价值的商业和教育工具, practical advantages and the lifelong value of understanding a second language and its cultures. 学生可能有机会到国外旅游.


因为学习一门世界语言的学生将会进入大学, we believe in equipping them with the language skills necessary to succeed in intermediate or upper-level college courses or to fulfill their world language requirement by passing a proficiency test. Therefore, we recommend that a student take two to three years, preferably four years, of a language.

为什么要学习第二语言?

学生 who have good 阅读 and spelling skills in 英语 are strongly advised to begin a world language sequence as a ninth grader. Language students must receive a passing grade at each level in order to continue the language course the following trimester. 学生 earning “F” grades will be required to repeat the course for an audit before moving on to the next level. 学生 earning “D” grades will work with their language teachers and guidance counselor on a contract for enrollment in subsequent courses.

Ninth graders with previous language experience must pass a proficiency test and an oral interview to be placed in a higher level course.

转移, 遗产, and immersion students are required to meet with a 世界通用语言s Department teacher before registering for their language class, 参加分班考试.
