Dual Credit Spanish IV
You are enrolled in Dual Credit Spanish IV for the fall. You will earn 4 college credits each semester. You
must earn a C- or better during the first semester in order to continue the Dual Credit Spanish IV course during
second semester.
You will need to purchase a textbook and online workbook prior to the first day of classes in August if you have
not done so already. Below is information relating to the purchase of these resources. It is important to note
that the District 155 registration fee does not cover the costs of this course because it is a college level course
for which you will earn college credit.
