Seal of Biliteracy
Increasingly, employers and colleges are seeking graduates who are able to speak, read and write in multiple languages. Five Star Schools awards an endorsement in biliteracy to any graduate who attains proficiency in English and other languages. Earning the seal of biliteracy recognizes students for learning additional languages or for maintaining their heritage languages while learning English. The Seal of Biliteracy values the dedication to learning multiple languages and cultures.
