The STAMP (STAndards-Based Measurement of Proficiency) and the WorldSpeak assessments are proficiency-based assessments that award students up to 4 high school elective credits (AR) for knowledge of a language other than English. In conjunction with meeting the Essential Skills of reading and writing in English, students are able to use the language assessments to demonstrate literacy in a partner language and fulfill the requirements to earn the State Seal of Biliteracy at graduation. The Essential Skills in reading and writing requirement is currently suspended for graduates pursuing the Biliteracy Seal during CDL.
