SUMMARY:Be ready for the Global Seal of Biliteracy\, Part 1
DESCRIPTION:Unique in the US\, the program “Be ready for the Global Seal of Biliteracy” helps students nationwide to earn high school credits for their heritage language (Romanian) by taking the ALTA Exam and to pass the STAMP test for English\, necessary for receiving the Certificate of Global Seal of Biliteracy. Juniors and Seniors in High School who scored highly in an English AP class or have passed the English part of ACT or SAT do not need to take the STAMP test. Nonetheless\, they need to provide the results so that an ARCS representative submits them alongside their ALTA test results to the Global Seal in order to request their certificates that will increase their chances of getting into highly-ranked universities in the US. Students can add their Global Seal to their Common App when they apply to universities. In order to receive this national honor\, we will work on improving Romanian writing and conversation skills by combining reading comprehension and grammar with interactive communicative methods. Groups of 4-5 students / 90 min\, weekly. This class is offered to students whose level of Romanian is intermediate high. \nThis is Part 1 of 2 quarters. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe $700 fee for both classes includes:\n– $132 representing the fee for the ALTA exam\n– $40 representing the fee for the STAMP test\n– $75 representing the Global Seal of Biliteracy processing fees\n– 30 hours of preparation for acquiring the Global Seal of Biliteracy\n– 15 hours of feedback on the written exercises \n\nScheduling\nTime: To Be Determined – We will work with parents and students to find the best times and days that work for you. Please fill out the registration form to let us know your availability.  \nPayment\nTuition for this course includes 10 classes on Zoom (90 minutes each). \nWe offer scholarships to families in need.
