Limited English Proficient Student Services |
Collinsville Middle School places students with limited
English proficiency in classrooms with teachers who are
certified to teach them. Less than one percent of our
student population currently needs these services. Working
with other schools in our district, Collinsville Middle
School established a program for appropriately identifying
students with limited English proficiency and determining
the appropriate instructional environment for each student.
On a regular basis we assess the English proficiency of
these students and monitor their progress in order to
determine their readiness for a mainstream classroom
environment. Over time, all students that receive limited
English proficiency services become fully integrated into
the classrooms.
As part of our Limited English Proficiency program, we
notify parents/guardians of, and provide information about:
(1) the instructional program, reasons for their child’s
identification, (2) their child’s level of English
proficiency, (3) the method of instruction to be used, (4)
how the program will met their child’s needs, (5) specific
exit requirements of the program, (6) how the program will
meet their child’s IEP, if applicable, and (7) information
on parent/guardian rights. Parental involvement will be
encouraged and parents/guardians will be regularly appraised
of their child’s progress.
The parents/guardians of limited English proficient students
are given an opportunity to provide input to the program and
are provided notification regarding their child’s placement
in, and information about, the school’s Limited English
Proficiency program. |
