Supporting Student Success
Bilingual education programs are designed to make grade-level academic content accessible to emergent bilinguals through the development of literacy and academic skills in the child's primary language and English. The academic, linguistic, and cultural background of emergent bilinguals is used in a bilingual education program as the platform for acquiring grade-level content material in the primary language and in English.

Dual-Language One-Way
-
The goal of the Dual Language One-Way program is to attain full proficiency, including grade-level literacy skills, in their primary language as well as English to participate equitably in school. Emergent bilinguals receive instruction in literacy and academic content in their primary language as well as English from teachers certified in bilingual education. At least half of the instruction is delivered in the students' primary language for the duration of the program.
ESL Program
-
ESL programs are designed to make grade-level academic content accessible to emergent bilinguals. ESL programs target English language development, including listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills, through academic content instruction that is linguistically and culturally responsive. This means that the ESL program uses the academic, linguistic, and cultural background of emergent bilinguals as a platform for acquiring grade-level content material in English. The goal of this program is to attain full proficiency in English in order to participate equitably in school.
Transitional Bilingual Late Exit Program
-
The goal of the Transitional Bilingual Late Exit program is to utilize their primary language as a resource while acquiring full proficiency in English to participate equitably in school. Emergent bilinguals receive instruction in literacy and academic content in their primary language as well as English from teachers certified in bilingual education. As the child acquires English, the amount of instruction provided in the primary language decreases until full proficiency in English is attained.
