Nope. I know 2 other families who applied for different grades. None of us have gotten in.

Yes. The proficiency test is required for 2nd and above.


Students must be "at or near grade level" in Spanish after 1st grade. This applies to all Whole School dual-language models. Strand Schools have an English-only option as well as dual-language.

If you are applying for an OOB, Spanish dominant seat - there is always a proficiency test.

I'm guessing the first grade rejects are "Spanish-speaking" kids who couldn't actually "make Spanish come out of their mouths."
