International Spanish Academy

The goal of the International Spanish Academy (ISA) program is to offer a language acquisition environment where students can reach advanced proficiency in reading, writing and speaking.

Seal of Biliteracy

In the State of Washington, students qualify for the Seal of Biliteracy by demonstrating proficiency in English and another world language. Students must demonstrate proficiency on a nationally normed language test and achieve an intermediate mid rating or higher across all skills.

World Language Credit Program

Many school districts in Washington now recognize the value of preparing students to be global citizens with the skills to communicate in English and other world languages. The World Language Credit Program is a way to earn high school credit for a language you already know.

Teaching & Learning
The Bellevue School District acknowledges that we learn, work, live and gather on the Indigenous Land of the Coast Salish peoples, specifically the Duwamish and Snoqualmie Tribes. We thank these caretakers of this land, who have lived and continue to live here, since time immemorial.
