ESL... Empowering Students to Learn
ESL...Empowering ourSelves as Leaders
May we seek to:  
 Provide ELLs with the necessary rigor in language development                                              
  Provide ELLs with full access to grade-level instructional content ​
 Integrate scaffolding for ELLs without compromising rigor or content                                         
 Provide ELLs access to text that increases in complexity, with intentional  connections between ESL and ELA instruction, all anchored in the CCSS
