The community partnership that Sra. Ann Riordans' Spanish 4/4H students enjoy with Acosta Middle School culminated this month with a visit by the middle school pen pals to Nicolet. Students have been exchanging letters with their pen pals for the entirety of second semester.
While visiting Nicolet, all students enjoyed a variety of activities including a Scavenger hunt throughout our building, board games, Kahoot challenges and even a friendly game of soccer on the back field. Students were able to enjoy a lunch together in the Commons and were able to understand their partners better with a quick game of Rapid fire questions. The Spanish 4/4H students presented their pen pals with a personalized story that they prepared as a goodbye gift for their new friends. Some tears were shed as students said their goodbyes. Overall, students from both schools enjoyed the opportunity to build community and friendships through this experience.

This past March 62 Nicolet students took the National Spanish Exam offered through the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese (AATSP). As the largest assessment of its kind in the United States, over 83,000 students nationwide participated in 2026.
Altogether, students received 5 Gold medals, 15 Silver medals, 9 Bronze medals, and 21 Honorable Mentions. The Gold medals rank in the top 5% of those taking the exam nationwide. Additionally, Nicolet Freshman Jorge Martinez received a perfect score - one of only 3 in the entire state of Wisconsin. We are certainly very proud of our students' efforts.
This success is not an isolated achievement but rather a reflection of the school’s longstanding tradition of excellence in Spanish language education. Students have consistently excelled on these exams. Achieving gold, silver, or bronze status or an honorable mention on the National Spanish Exam (NSE) is a testament to students’ dedication and hard work.
The Gold medal winners this year that we would like to specifically recognize are:
Level 2: Jorge Martinez, Matthew Tongkumbunjong
Level 4: Issabella Reid, Zachary Berg
Level 5: Matthew Hellman
