Multilingual Learners

The Multilingual Learners (ML) program is designed to assist students who do not speak English as their primary language. ML students participate in age-appropriate, general education classes that may include ML instructional support based on the student’s proficiency level.

As part of the registration process, parents/guardians complete a Home Language Survey. If the HLS indicates a language other than English the student will be assessed using the state WIDA screener it identify if the student qualifies for ML services.  Parents/guardians will be notified if their student qualifies for services. 

State Assessment
All ML eligible students are administered an annual WIDA ACCESS assessment in order to measure progress in English language proficiency and to determine further eligibility.
