Federal and state laws require all students to participate in state accountability assessments (ESEA: HR1, Title 1, Part A, Subpart 1, Section 1111, (b), 3, C and Section 22-2C-$ NMSA 1978) • While these laws do not offer an exemption or right of refusal a parent may refuse but must notify the Office of Assessment, Accountability, & Research and sign appropriate document Assessment RequirementsLegal Requirements and & Potential Consequences for Non-participation

  15. ELL Secondary Scheduling Maintenance Program Spanish speaking students with an ACCESS score below 5.0 must be enrolled in Spanish Language Arts. Spanish Language Arts must be taught by a Bilingually Endorsed teacher, *Level 300 teachers must have a MCNL and Bilingual Endorsement Spanish speaking students with an ACCESS score below 5.0 should be enrolled in either ESL or ELA - Taught by a TESOL Endorsed teacher Read 180 does not replace ESL or Spanish Language Arts * Speakers of other languages should be enrolled in either ELA, or ESL by a TESOL endorsed teacher but are NOT participating in a Maintenance Program.

  17. Why Gómez & Gómez for LCPS? Best practices in the mainstream classroom are increasingly important as more and more mainstream classroom teachers have ELLs in their classrooms, yet less than 15% of them have some professional development related to ELLs (de Jong & Harper, 2005). This creates a serious issue for ELLs in the classroom and for their teachers as the teachers are not able to understand how language influences their teaching and their students’ learning. Many teachers are not getting ELL best practices in their teacher education programs …(O'Hara & Pritchard, 2008). Gómez & Gómez:“Here Today, Here to Stay”

  18. Gómez & Gómez:“Here Today, Here to Stay” In well-implemented DL programs, both ELLs and SLLs do as well or better than peers in other monolingual programs. (Bruck, Lambert and Tucker, 1974; Hakuta, 1986; Weatherford, 1986) What makes the Gómez & Gómez DL framework “Well Implemented”?
