English Learner Support

Welcome to English Learner Support. Our goal is to help our English Learners become proficient in English. At the same time, we support our English Learners as they meet and exceed standards based targets in all academic areas. We have aligned fiscal and human resources to support our EL population. We conduct frequent ongoing monitoring of our progress through several measures including CST's, CELDT, benchmark exams and AMAO's. We provide ongoing professional development in English Learner and differentiated instruction strategies. We reach out to parents to bridge the home to school gap.
