Option 2, which includes Catalan, Castellano and Ciencias Sociales classes, is mandatory for all Elementary School students. It is optional for Middle and High School students. Option 2 is mandatory for all grades until 10th grade for all students with Spanish citizenship.

Please choose either OPTION 1 or OPTION 2:

I want my child to study only the American system, and upon graduation from ES American School, my child will not have access to the

Spanish University system. By choosing this option, I acknowledge the following (please check all the boxes to indicate that you understand and accept each point):

  • My child will not be able to homologate his/her high school diploma in Spain.
  • My child will not have access to the Spanish University System.
  • There are many private and public universities in Spain that offer degree programs in English, such as ESADE and La Salle, but my child will not be able to access those programs either, as they also require homologation.

I want my child to study both the American system, and the Spanish and Catalan courses required by the Catalan Department of Education, so that my child can potentially access Spanish universities. By choosing this option, I acknowledge the following (please check all the boxes to indicate that you understand and accept each point):

  • My child must study approximately 3 hours of Catalan Language and Literature every week (this class is taught exclusively in Catalan).
  • My child must study approximately 3 hours of Spanish Language and Literature every week (this class is taught exclusively in Spanish).
  • My child must study approximately 2-3 hours of Catalan Geography and History (this class is taught in Catalan) every week.
  • All of the above classes must be studied every year while in our school, until the successful completion of tenth grade.
  • The curriculum of the Spanish/Catalan program has been created for native Spanish / Catalan speakers. The curriculum will be adapted for non-native speakers during the first year of study only. In the second year of the program, non-native students will be expected to fulfill all requirements of the native Spanish / Catalan language program.
  • Participation in this program will significantly reduce the number of classes taught in English in my child's curriculum.
  • Participation in this program will permit my child to homologate his/her 10th grade into the Spanish Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (Secondary School Level) and his/her American High School Diploma into the Spanish Bachillerato.
  • Successful completion of this program will permit my child to access Spanish universities.
  • Successful completion of this program is only one of the requirements for attending Spanish universities. ES American School does not prepare students for other requirements, such as the Spanish university entrance exam (Selectividad). If my child wishes to access Spanish universities, he/she must prepare for the university entrance exam independently.
