Students land in Advanced Content or On Level classes based on test scores and teacher recommendations. AC classes cover the same material as On Level, but dig deeper into the information. Math classes go beyond the AC level and will affect a student’s Math placement in High School.  In 8th grade, students are able to choose between French and Spanish as a foreign language choice. This year, a pilot program offered Foreign Language to 7th graders who qualified.
