SHS Chinese Placement Survey
If a student is planning to take a Chinese class at SHS in the upcoming school year, please read the following placement information and complete the Placement Survey.  Students new to Chinese can just sign up for Chinese 1 and do not need to take the placement test.  The purpose of the Placement Survey is to help SHS determine the students’ level in Chinese to help the student succeed in furthering his/her knowledge of the Chinese language and culture.
