The National Spanish Exam and the National Spanish Challenge are motivational contests to recognize student achievements in the studies of Spanish and to stimulate further interest in the teaching and learning of Spanish. The National Spanish Exam (NSE) is an online, standardized assessment competition for Grades 6 -12, given by about 4,000 middle and high school teachers throughout the United States, to measure the performance (interpretive communication) and achievement of students who are studying Spanish as a second language.
