In response to the limitations of administering virtual assessments during distance learning last year, Multilingual Pathways piloted an 8th Grade World Language Survey process in lieu of administering world language assessments. To remove the burden placed on school sites of administering an assessment, we will continue to centrally administer the survey process and use of 1st semester grades this school year 21-22 and make recommendations for 9th grade world language placement in SY 22-23. Students may always appeal the placement recommendation with their high school counselor and advocate for a different placement. Please review this Memo for details about how to communicate this approach to counselors, students, and families. The survey process will happen from January 17th - February 11th, 2022 and recommendations will be made mid-March.
