School District 230 T-Bolts score tops on National German Exam

Victor J. Andrew had a total of 40 students across the German 1, 2 and 3 courses participate in the National German Exam given by the American Association of Teachers of German. 

Students scored very well, five of whom received Bronze and Silver medals for their achievements.

This exam is given annually to students of German to see how they rank in German proficiency compared to other German language learners across the country.  

German teacher Erika Lupacchino, “I’m constantly impressed with our students’ dedication to practice the language both in and out of the classroom setting and their willingness to be creative with the language. I also believe that the innovative teaching methods used in our German Department support language acquisition and put students at ease as their German proficiency grows.”
