Seal of Biliteracy
Seal of Biliteracy & World Language Credits
Any student in grades 9-12 who has obtained language skills outside the classroom can earn high school credit in any language by taking an assessment.
Students who are taking a class cannot receive additional credits by taking the competency-based test. The grade earned in the class takes precedence over the competency-based testing score. Seniors in the fourth year or beyond in a language may take these tests to show eligibility for the Seal of Biliteracy.
