TCSD is excited to share information regarding the TCSD #1 Biliteracy Pathway Awards. These awards recognize student achievement in the area of language acquisition and are designed to set a standard for high level biliteracy attainment for students in both our dual language program and traditional world language program. The Seal of Biliteracy is an award bestowed upon students at graduation who demonstrate academic proficiency in English and at least one other language. Teton County joins 46 states across the country who offer the Seal of Biliteracy at the state level and will be awarding the pathway awards at 5th and 8th grade, and the Seal of Biliteracy.
