English Language Development Program

The English Language Development (ELD) Program aims to support students whose primary language is not English so that they will redesignate as Fluent-English-Proficient (FEP). The major goals for the ELD Program are to devlop student's proficiency and skills in reading, writing, listening, and speaking of the English language. The participation in this program is only known by the student’s teachers and site administration. At the end of each school year, ELD students are re-evaluated to determine their English language ability.
