Challenge Exams Information

Information packages for the language challenge exams are now available from the Delta School District's Challenge Exam website (click here).

Language challenge exams that will be administered include:
  • French 11/12
  • Mandarin 11/12 (Traditional and Simplified Chinese)
  • Spanish 11/12
  • German 11/12
  • Japanese 11/12
  • Korean 11/12
  • Punjabi 11/12
All exams will be written in Delta between January 22 to 30, 2011.

Ms. Foster, our grade 11 counsellor, will be the school liaison person for the exams. Students must fill in, electronically, pages 10 and 11 of their application (click here) before printing them out.

Ms. Foster will announce the Templeton deadline for all forms to come in. If you require the application form e-mailed to you, please send me an e-mail at eleung@vsb.bc.ca - clearly tell me your full name, and the exam you are planning to challenge, and I will e-mail the student application form for you.

Please note: you can only challenge for each subject once - and the mark you receive from the challenge exam will become your official mark for the course. For Grade 12 challenge courses, you have the option of writing the optional provincial exams - in that case, your challenge exam's result will become your school percentage (worth 40% of your blended mark).
