Each year the eighth grade students take The National Spanish Exam. It measures a student’s comprehension of written and spoken Spanish. In 2018, over 150,000 students took the exam. Certificates are awarded to students based on their national scores. There are four levels of certificates: the Mención Honorífica is given to students who score between the 50th and 74th percentiles. The Premio de Bronce is given to students who score between the 75th and 84th percentiles. The Premio de Plata is given to students for scoring between the 85th and 94th percentiles. Lastly, the Premio de Oro is given to students who score in the 95th percentile or higher.
This year, in eighth grade, 42 students completed the exam and there were 25 total winners from the Middle School. There were 6 Mención Honorífica, 5 Bronce, 7 Premio de Plata and 6 Premio de Oro. In the gold category were Ethan D, Anna J, and Stella P.
The following three students earned first place in the state. Skyler B, Brooke W and Michael C. They all scored in the 99th percentile nationwide, and received a check for $100!
