The WL Department at HHS would like to recognize the amazing achievement of four German students. Kendrick Clark, Michael Petty, Wyatt Williamson, and Jacob Young have earned advanced scores on their German Language Proficiency Exam. This is such an extraordinary accomplishment because none of these students are native speakers of German, and earning an advanced score just by studying a language in the classroom is a very difficult task. We are so proud of their accomplishments and congratulate them on earning their Seal of Biliteracy with such outstanding scores!
