West Scranton Bilingual Students Excel

The Northeast Chapter of the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese awarded prizes for outstanding performance to the top world language students in Northeastern Pennsylvania.  The students were chosen based on their performance on the 2015 National Spanish Exam, which was administered earlier in the spring.  Four students from West Scranton High School ranked among the top award recipients in the bilingual category.

They were: (L to R): Obdulia Vazquez (1^st place, Level 4), Neishmy Rodriguez (3^rd place, Level 4), Krystine Jimenez (3^rd place, Level 2), and Natalie Olivo (2^nd place, Level 2 – absent from photo).
