Twenty-three ASMSA students earned the Arkansas Seal of Biliteracy during the 2020-21 school year; twenty-two of those were seniors, or just under a fourth of the Class of 2021. The Arkansas Seal of Biliteracy is an honor that recognizes high school students who have studied and attained proficiency in at least one other language than English. It encourages 14
students to pursue biliteracy, honors the skills students attain, and can be evidence of skills that are attractive to college admissions offices as well as future employers. Three students — Jacob Holmes (’21), and Yibing Hu (’21) and Kenny Ventress (’21) — received certification in three languages. Holmes qualified for French, Spanish, and Japanese.
