How State agencies and World Language associations can collaborate to support the Seal of Biliteracy: Case Study of Washington
On Demand Session
The Washington State Seal of Biliteracy launched in 2015 thanks to tremendous advocacy efforts by community-based non-profit language and immigrant advocacy organizations. Come learn how the State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) partners with the Washington Association for Language Teaching (WAFLT) to provide support to local schools and districts to implement the State Seal and the World Languages Competency-Based Credit Testing that has made it possible for any language to have proficiency tests available to qualify for the Seal.
