World Language Department
World Language Department
Welcome, Bienvenue, Bienvenidos to the World Language Department at West Campus. The department offers college preparatory classes at all levels, including Advanced Placement. We recognize the importance of languages other than English, along with other cultures, and we integrate the practice and the knowledge of both. Students come to West with a variety of languages, heritages, and cultures that we like to share and embrace in our classrooms.
All world language courses are University of California eligible (i.e., they meet A-G requirements). The department offers coursework in Spanish I-3, French 1-3, AP Spanish, and AP French. Our teachers this year are the following:
