• The English Learner (EL) Program engages every EL student in high quality instruction, assessment, and research-based best practice. We strive to develop students’ linguistic needs in reading, writing, speaking and listening while also meeting their academic and social emotional needs.

    Program Goals

    • Plan and deliver instruction that integrates language and content learning simultaneously using research-based best practices

    • Ensure English learners are receiving the appropriate supports to foster their academic growth and success

    • Refine instruction and programming for English learners through intentional analysis of data

    • Safeguard English learner’s sense of pride in their language and culture

    • Advocate for equitable access and remove barriers to success

    • Graduate multilingual lifelong learners through the development of college, career, and life readiness skills

    • Support ELs in their gradual transition to general education classes and in accessing advanced classes
