Seniors graduates at EPA are able to graduate with a New York State Seal of Biliteracy, demonstrating their command of both English and Spanish.
Seniors graduating from EPA's Dual language program have worked diligently, even through this horrible pandemic, to achieve biliteracy. This project would support and facilitate students continued learning, while celebrating student achievements amidst a global crisis. In order to receive this seal, students will engage in a project-based learning opportunity consisting of narrative writing, research, synthesis writing, and oral presentations answering set thematic questions in both English and Spanish. iPads will allow them to engage in all parts of this project successfully.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
