About the ELL ProgramThe English Language Learner (ELL) Program offers language support services for students whose first or native language is not English.
District 92 provides support services as a K-8 pull-out program that requires student to leave the mainstream classroom for varying periods of time per day or week. Pull-out classes provide intensive English Language acquisition instruction and are delivered in a classroom setting with a low student/teacher ratio. This provides an opportunity for skill-focused English instruction that is individualized to meet students needs. |
E-Learning ActivitiesProgram EligibilityStudents are eligible for ELL services if they speak a language other than English, as indicated on the D92 Home Language Survey, and receive a qualifying score on the WIDA Screener.
AssessmentELL students are assessed annually to measure growth of social and academic language with the state approved English Language Proficiency test, ACCESS for ELLs. When the students score at a certain level of language proficiency in English, they are eligible to exit the program. Exited students continue to be monitored for two years.
