Seal of Biliteracy
Graduate from EHTHS with the Seal of Biliteracy AND your diploma!
EHTHS is proud to offer the Seal of Biliteracy program. Seniors studying an upper-level world language class may take a proficiency assessment in that language to determine whether they are eligible to graduate with the Seal of Biliteracy. The Seal of Biliteracy certifies that the student has demonstrated proficiency in both English and another language. The Seal of Biliteracy is recognized by the NJDOE and will be noted on the student's transcript. More information from the NJDOE can be found here.
