EL Identification and Exit Criteria
How are students identified for EL services?
The Home Language Survey (HLS) is the first step in the EL identification process. The information provided on the HLS determines student eligibility for the English language proficiency assessment: the WIDA Screener. The WIDA screener assessment determines whether a student should be classified as an EL student who is entitled to EL services.
How are students exited from the EL program?
The ACCESS for ELLs assessment measures EL students’ progress toward English language proficiency and determines whether an EL student is ready to exit from the EL program.
