Our goals are to:

• Help ALL students gain fluency and proficiency in the English language.
• Provide equal and universal access to state adopted curriculum through rigorous instruction.
• Help ALL students acquire essential reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills needed to succeed in mainstream courses and graduate from high school.
• All students will exit our ELD program speaking fluent English.
• Prepare students for life beyond high school.
