assesses their language proficiency in listening, speaking, reading and
writing. Contact your school counselor or George Arias-Montero, Testing
Specialist in room 125, to learn more about registering for a proficiency test

This
month is Hispanic Heritage month. It
began on September 15th, which was the historic day when the church
bells rang in Dolores, Mexico announcing that Mexico was going to fight for
independence from the Spanish.
Many Sprague students have their family roots in Latin America. Hispanic Americans have made many contributions
to art, literature, and music, economics and laws. Sixty two Hispanic Americans have also
received the Medal of Honor. This month
we celebrate this heritage and in the words of Mexican Artist Frida Kahlo,
“Viva la Vida!”
