English Language Learners
ELL (English Language Learners)
This program is designed to meet the individual needs of the students based on language proficiency. All students that have the influence of another language in their home are eligible for these services. Specially trained staff will help students improve their English language ability. Listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills will be emphasized. The most appropriate services for each student will be determined using the results of the individual annual English language proficiency test scores. Parents will receive a letter each year explaining their child’s test results and specific services.
ELL Language Lab
This class is specifically designed to support ELL students. Specially trained staff works with students to ensure they can complete and understand assignments and new concepts presented in core classes (reading, language arts, social studies, math, and science). The small group setting will allow for more individualized instruction and assistance. Students evaluate themselves throughout the class on promptness, on-task behavior, readiness with materials, completion of daily goals, attitude and contribution to class.
