Welcome to ESOL

The goals of the ESOL program are to enable all students to succeed in the four language skills, which are listening, speaking, reading, and writing, both socially and academically, and to understand and function successfully in the

American culture

We have three staff members who service English to Speakers of Other Languages.

Sheila Strother               Ann Judd               Janet Donald

 

At Sedalia Park we service the ESOL students using one of three models:

 

International Academy

This is a major strategy supported by our charter. Students in 2nd- 5th grades, who have English as a second language and score 5% or lower on the Language Assessment Battery , attend the academy for 2 hours each day. 

 

Pull-out method

Students are pulled out of their regular classroom to the ESOL classroom to learn in a small group setting.  We support the grade level curriculum while teaching oral and written English language skills.

 

Inclusion

The ESOL teacher goes into the regular classroom to give support to the ESOL students.

 

In the Spring, ESOL students are given the Access test.   This is a state-mandated test that determines if students qualify to continue or exit the ESOL program.  The students who test out of the program are placed on a monitored list that allows us to track their progress in the classroom.
