This Ed Source article “California students could soon get a Seal of STEM on their diplomas” mentions the State of Biliteracy and references our recent report.
“California already offers two seals: the Golden State Seal Merit Diploma and the State Seal of Biliteracy. …The State Seal of Biliteracy, created in 2011, recognizes students who have attained high proficiency in speaking, reading and writing in one or more languages in addition to English. That seal is not mandatory, but 321 out of 420 eligible school districts in California now offer the Seal of Biliteracy, according to a report from Californians Together, a statewide advocacy organization for English Learners.
