Nearly 500 Jordan School District students were celebrated at Multilingual Learner Family Night for becoming 2026 WIDA graduates and earning a Seal of Biliteracy. Students of all ages who passed the WIDA (World-Class Instructional Design and Assessment) test received certificates and medals certifying their proficiency in English.

The night included a presentation of the 2026 WIDA graduates and highlighted multilingual learners with student performances and speeches. Tara Matiga, representing Herriman High School’s Asian Student Union and Foothills Elementary School’s sixth grade Chinese Dual Language Immersion students each performed songs. Several students spoke to the crowd about what being bilingual means to them.

Congratulations to the 2026 WIDA graduates! Keep making biliteracy your superpower.
