Any current PVHS Junior or Senior may apply for the Seal.

You must show proficiency in 2 languages, with English being one of them.

1) The options to demonstrate English proficiency include meeting one of the following requirements:

·         ACT Test – English score of 18+

·         AP English Language or Literature score – 3+

·         ELPA21 Test score – 4 or 5 in all domains

2) The options to demonstrate proficiency in another language include a variety of testing options, all of which will be administered by Pleasant Valley. The assessment used will depend upon the language in which a student is wishing to demonstrate proficiency. 

We will be administering the World Language assessments every Spring for any interested Junior or Senior. 

You will receive a link to sign up for a preferred time.  Testing is approximately 3 hours.

It depends on which test you take.  To show proficiency in most World languages, the cost of the test is $20.  ASL & other languages may have different pricing.  

Students are responsible to pay for their own test.  Payments will be posted into your Infinite Campus account and must be paid for prior to ordering a test for you.

Students who can demonstrate proficiency in 2 languages will receive the Seal of Biliteracy on their transcript as well as a certificate at Academic Awards night.

Depending on your level of Proficiency, you may also be awarded the Global Seal of Biliteracy.
