How can my child earn a high school credit?
1. Verify if your child’s school accepts WASC accreditation by checking the WASC directory.
2. Select the appropriate* OFEK Hebrew course on OFEK website.
3. At the end of the course the student will receive the transcript verifying course completion.
4. The students need to submit the transcript verifying to their school, so the school can then “accept” those as credit toward their foreign language graduation requirement
*Unsure which level to choose? Schedule a complimentary Hebrew placement call to receive guidance.
