Chapel Hill High School says its Spanish program is muy importante — and that’s paying off.
The school was named school of the year Saturday by the North
Carolina chapter of the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and
Portuguese for its Spanish program.
The school gained recognition through its involvement in association
activities, which include the National Spanish Examinations and Spanish
honor societies.
The school has worked with the group for more than 30 years.
Ken Stewart, head of the World Language Department, said the award highlighted the value of the program.
