Literacy Seals

TVUSD recognizes the importance of our students being ready to be a part of recognised society. In recognition of the dedication and hard work of our World Language students, we honor our Senior graduates the California Seal of Biliteracy and the Riverseide County Seal of Multiliteracy. 

The seal on the diploma identifies them as to have met rigorous challenges in demonstrating their proficiency in English and another World Language. The student receiving the seals is a World Language Scholar.

The purpose of instituting the Seals is:

• To encourage students to study languages

• To certify attainment of biliteracy skills

• To recognize the value of language diversity

• To provide employers with a method of identifying people with language and biliteracy skills

• To provide universities with a method to recognize and give credit to applicants for attainment of high level skills in multiple languages

• To prepare students with 21st century skills that will benefit them in the labor market and the global society

• To strengthen intergroup relationships and honor the multiple cultures and languages in a community.
