Earn College Credit through the Seal of Biliteracy!

Does your grade 12 student read, write, and speak another language? Has your student earned a minimum of a 480 on the EBRW portion of the SAT or a 4.8 on the ACCESS test?

If so, they may qualify for the state Seal of Biliteracy. The Seal is awarded to students who can demonstrate proficiency in the English Language and another language. They will be honored at Senior Honors AND will earn college credit.

Starting on 9/19, students can sign up in the Maine East Bookstore. I will follow up with your student to schedule their non-English language test. The test is free of charge.

Ms. Baima will contact registered students to set up a date and a time for testing.
