See http://www.nysed.gov/world-languages/languages-other-english-publications. If you don't have a Checkpoint C course, we can find pathways for your students.

Please note that the NYSSB can be awarded to any student in any language and community members can be invited to be part of the process in lower-incidence languages, for example.
