If you have taken 2 years in middle school- level 2.  3 years- level 3, etc.  Beyond that, students with extensive language education/experiences beyond 3 years of middle school, should describe them in the next question. A world language department member will follow up with you with further guidance regarding advanced level recommendations. **If Spanish is spoken at your home and you understand Spanish and can already speak some Spanish, please sign up for Spanish Language Arts 1 (Spanish for Native Speakers).
