English language learner programming
The English Language Learner Program at Northeast College Prep is designed to provide quality instruction aimed at helping English language learners achieve English language proficiency & academic success. Using the WIDA English Language Standards as a guide, the program targets reading, writing, listening, & speaking skills in both social & academic contexts. It also provides students with the language skills needed to meet the Minnesota Content Standards in the areas of math, language arts, science, & social studies. By the time students exit the English Language Learning Program, which 18 during the 2021-2022 school year did, they will have the language tools needed to achieve success in the mainstream classroom. In addition to being an award-winning program, our ELL program is out performing the Minneapolis Public School District & the State in MCA proficiency data.
