Accelerating English Learning for Recent Immigrants in Newcomer Academies

Newcomer Academies focus on accelerating English instruction for recent immigrant students, enabling them to master both the language and content area courses effectively. By addressing the academic performance gap between English Language Learners and native speakers, we provide hands-on, visual, and auditory resources that are relevant to their learning needs. Our bilingual teachers offer integrated curriculum opportunities in Language Arts and Social Studies, while students enhance their skills through mainstream Math and Science classes, supported by additional assistance from educators.
