Prospective students entering 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 7th or 8th grade for the 2024-25 school year are required to take the STAMP Language Test prior to entering The GLOBE Lottery.
In accordance with guidelines set forth by the Georgia Department of Education (SBOE Rule 160-4-9-.05) students entering into GLOBE's Lottery should have current knowledge of one of our target languages: Spanish, French, or Mandarin (Simplified Chinese). A STAMP assessment must be taken and the student must score qualifying marks in order to be considered for placement at The GLOBE Academy. An offer of placement will then only be extended to a prospective student if a seat becomes available in the tested Language Track. Prospective students are encouraged to take the practice exam prior to registering for a test. If your child(ren) does/do not have prior experience in Spanish, Mandarin or French we do not recommend registering for this assessment.
Students can test only once per school year for the STAMP assessment. Please complete one registration form per child.
