English Language Learners

The West Central School District aims to help prepare the district’s limited English proficient students to live successfully in an English-speaking culture and in a multilingual, multicultural world. This preparation includes providing developmentally appropriate instruction in the English language, maintaining a respect for the student’s native culture and heritage, and developing a sense of self-worth and pride in the student.  

Instructional Model

Collaborative, in class support and pull-out programming are both approaches we use for teaching language and content to English learners, particularly as schools prepare students to achieve high academic standards.  For questions or more information call the Director of Special Services at 605-528-3217.
