In 2015-2016, the Georgia Department of Education announced two new initiatives that allow Georgia schools to recognize students who possess international skills and advanced language proficiency. Woodstock High School received approval from the DOE to award the Georgia Seal of Biliteracy and the International Skills Diploma Seal to its qualifying graduating seniors. Students who successfully complete these programs will receive recognition from the school and a seal on their diploma. The diploma seals are an honor for the student and a signal for employers and universities that the student is ready to participate at a global level.
