Bilingual programs vary from school to school, but at V. Sue Cleveland High School the Spanish Enrichment program includes at least 45 minutes a day of instruction in Spanish. This instruction takes place in the student's Spanish class. For example: If your student has a "bilingual" Spanish 2 he/she will take the IPT test at the end of the year. This test does not help or hurt the student, but simply tracks his/her Spanish proficiency. CHS uses these scores to gauge how our program is doing. The IPT test is the only difference from a "regular" Spanish 2 class. All teachers must follow the same curriculum.

Programa del Enriquecimiento: Este programa es para los estudiantes que no hablan español y quieren aprender a hacerlo.
El programa bilingüe varía de escuela a escuela, pero en V. Sue Cleveland High School el programa de enriquecimiento incluye por lo menos 45 minutos al día de instrucción en español. Esta instrucción se lleva a cabo en la clase de español. Por ejemplo: Si su estudiante tiene una clase "bilingüe" de Español 2, él/ella tomará el examen IPT a final de año. Este examen no tiene ningún efecto en el/la estudiante, simplemente evalúa el progreso de su fluidez en español. Esta es la única diferencia entre una clase "regular". Todos los maestros de Español 2 en CHS usan el mismo plan curricular.
