Seal of Biliteracy: Language as Power

Gisselle Oseguera Paz, a La Follette High School grad, just earned the Seal of Biliteracy — proof she masters both English and Spanish. But her achievement is part of a bigger trend: nearly 70 Madison students are graduating with this seal this year, and since 2018, almost 500 have earned it across 15 languages. For Gisselle, it’s more than a credential — it’s cultural pride and a tool to help local businesses thrive. The seal demands rigorous testing in both languages plus cultural fluency, making it a powerful asset for college, careers, and global citizenship.
