    Parental involvement is indispensable to an ELL student’s success!
     
    ENL teachers will make every effort to maintain continuous contact with parents regarding a child’s progress.  Translators can be arranged through the school district for teacher/parent communication.

     

     Communication will take place through the following means:

    •      Parents will receive a letter documenting their child’s placement in the ENL program each Fall 
    •    Parents will be invited to open houses and school orientation           
    •    Parents will be scheduled for biannual parent/teacher conferences         
    •    Parents will receive testing notification for state testing. 
    •    Some schools will have monthly parent meetings.  The school will provide translators.
