Meeting the Needs of our Students
Our Mission
The mission of our program is to ensure students learning English engage in the full array of educational programs and services offered by ASD.
The work of accomplishing this mission is outlined by the following core beliefs, which are based on current research demonstrating how students acquire academic language in school settings.
In order to accomplish our mission, the ELL Program has adapted a specific range of delivery models that focus on the needs of individual students at their current stage of English language acquisition. These models include:
-
English Language Development instruction for Newcomers and Beginning English learners
-
Core Content Scaffolding Support in the classroom for elementary students
-
Secondary Sheltered Content Transitional Course offerings
There are no resources or collections to display
ELL Services K-12
We offer interventions and pre-referral services addressing and mitigating the impact of language learning on the academic progress of limited-English-proficient (LEP) students in ASD to assist with determinations for special education and related services. These services are a collaborative effort between the Anchorage School District's bilingual, special education, speech and psychology programs.
Please contact the ELL staff at your home school to begin the ELL data-gathering process (ELL packet) for the Collaborative Problem Solving Process (CPSP).
If you have general questions, please call the ELL main office.
