Any student who successfully completes our K-5 dual language program, meets the STAAR requirement of meets or masters in reading, and scores proficient on TELPAS (for LEP students only) and the Avant Spanish Level assessment (LEP and non-LEP) in the reading and speaking domains respectively, will be offered the opportunity to receive 1.0 high school Spanish I credit reflected as a letter grade of “P” (passing score) in their high school transcript. No numeric grade will be granted (See TAC 74.12(b)(5)(F))
Incoming 6th grade dual language that meet the criteria above and earn the credit, will have the option to continue with their Spanish language acquisition learning journey by enrolling in a Spanish II class or Heritage Spanish II, if placement criteria are met and the latter course is offered at their campus. Incoming 6th grade dual language students who do not meet the criteria for earning Spanish I credit at the completion of the Dual Language program will have the option to continue with their Spanish language acquisition learning journey by enrolling in a Spanish I class or Heritage Spanish I, if placement criteria are met and the latter course is offered at their campus.
