Achieving foreign language credits outside of NY State public high school?

<p>I’m wondering if there are any NY state residents here who’ve had the experience of getting their school district to recognize and give credit to a student’s foreign language course taken outside of their public high school? For example, if a student is transferring into a public high school and wants to continue studying the language of their choice that is not offered at the local high school have you been successful in arranging this? I may be looking in to this soon and would welcome some pointers.</p>
