[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well read a bit further, a DCPS assessment qualifies. An outside assessment would likely be more rigorous.

Automatic Qualification for the Seal of Biliteracy

Some students will qualify automatically for the DCPS Seal of Biliteracy. These students will have demonstrated their proficiency by means of an assessment that is tracked in the DCPS data system.[/quote]

Well PP, let me cut and paste what the criteria for the automatic qualification for biliteracy is:

Automatic Qualification

For English 
Score of 4 or above on 10th grade PARCC ELA exam
Score of 3 or above on English AP Exam (Literature or Composition)
Score of 4 or above on IB Level II English Exam
Score of 5 or above on ACCESS 2.0 for ELs (only accepted if achieved in grades 9-12)

For Languages
Score of 3 or above on World Language AP exam
Score of 5 or above on STAMP 4S (all sections)
Score of 4 or above on IB Level B exam
Score of Silver or above on National Latin Exam Level 4
Score of Cum Laude or above on National Latin Exam Level 5-6

The majority of kids at DCI would likely get the automatic qualification in the IB program.

If kids don’t automatically qualify then they can contact DCPS to take a test.

So yea, not everyone can get it.

I find it too funny how people who don’t have any kids at DCI or know anything about the biliteracy seal are talking crap.[/quote]
