More students are graduating from Springfield Public Schools with a Seal of Biliteracy than ever before.
On May 11, 80 students received their Seal of Biliteracy or Distinguished Seal of Biliteracy award. To earn the seal, students took the AAPPL language proficiency exam and scored Intermediate or higher on reading, listening, writing and speaking a world language. With a high enough score, students can earn up to 18 credits of world language at participating Missouri universities who recognize the Missouri Seal of Biliteracy.
"Students who earn the Seal of Biliteracy are hard-working, dedicated, outstanding seniors," said Wendy Robinson, World Language Coordinator. "To have the most amount of SPS seniors ever to earn the Seal of Biliteracy shows our commitment to exceptional world language instruction and experiences for SPS students."
