How the Biliteracy batch works
- Milwaukee Marathi Shala follows the BMM Marathi Shala curriculum and partners with the Avant Assessment pathway used by BMM schools.
- Students prepare in Shala classes, then may take the Avant STAMP language assessment (discounted pricing is available for BMM Marathi Shala students).
- Strong STAMP results can support a Global Seal of Biliteracy — official recognition of bilingual proficiency.
- Certified Avant Assessment proctors on our staff help families schedule and complete testing.
How this helps with college credit
- Avant STAMP scores can be used toward college credit recommendations through the American Council on Education (ACE), depending on the college or university.
- Many high schools and colleges recognize Seal of Biliteracy / STAMP results for world-language placement or credit — always confirm with your school counselor and intended college.
- Start early: build Marathi proficiency in Shala, then ask staff about the Biliteracy batch timeline (often aligned with later grades such as 11th grade testing windows).
