“The NSE promotes language proficiency, assesses performance according to the World-Readiness Standards for Learning Languages, stimulates further interest in language study, and motivates Spanish language students in secondary and middle schools. The NSE contest is a program of the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese (AATSP) and is an approved contest by the National Association of Secondary School Principals. The contest is administered annually in the spring term. In 2021, the contest expanded to include younger learners with an elementary-level version called the National Spanish Challenge (NSC). The contests are available to learners whose sole Spanish-language experience is in school as well as those who have had experience with Spanish at home, in their communities, or abroad.” (more)
