Mango's Spanish course on its own, with nothing added.

- 86%
Counting the 101 lesson plans in the Guide alongside the courses.
Both figures come from a third-party audit by EdGate Correlation Services of Mango's Spanish course at levels 1-4, Novice Low through Intermediate High. They measure how much of the framework the curriculum covers, not student outcomes, and they are not an endorsement by ACTFL or by any state.
Getting it approved
What to attach to a proposal
Two documents are yours to take now, and one is specific enough to Virginia that you have to ask for it.
The Mango Proficiency Scale
PDF, yours to attach
Level-by-level descriptions mapped onto the ACTFL and CEFR frameworks, so you can state where each course lands in the terms your district already uses.
Download the scaleThe Mango Curriculum whitepaper
PDF, yours to attach
How the K-12 curriculum is built and how it aligns to state and national standards. It carries a dedicated section on alignment to world language standards, which is usually the part a reviewer asks for.
