College German (UW German 103)
College German is a conglomerate of both 3rd and 4th year German students. We are able to offer German 5-8 here at Enumclaw High School every other year for University of Washington credit. This year's class is being offered as UW German 103.
Please visit the page "UW 103 Information" for informational flyers, website links, and registration forms.

In College German we follow German 103 curriculum used at the University of Washington. Frau is in close contact with the university so that EHS students learn the same material at the high school as if they were on the UW campus. We use the textbook Kontakte (7th ed.).
