German Language Exams in 5th and 8th Grade

We offer some of our 5th grade students the opportunity to participate in the German language diploma exam levels A1 and A2 .  Most of our 8th grade German language students participate in one of the following standardized high school language exams before they exit our middle school: the German language diploma (DSD) at the B1 level or the National German High School Exam- AATG. Registration for these exams is based on current student assessments, effort, participation and teacher recommendation.

Please contact your child's German teacher to find out more about the exams and registration deadlines.
