Blueprint for English Learner Success

Pillar 4: A Plan for Future Success

From the Vision: English learners thrive in high school and graduate with the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to be successful in college and/or a career of their choice, and to contribute to civic life in a global community.

Building Block 1: Thriving in high school

Level: Classroom

  • Educators encourage ELs to participate fully in school life (e.g., in athletic teams, student government, clubs, and academic enrichment activities in addition to meaningful and rigorous classroom learning experiences).

  • Educators nurture self-confidence and ensure that ELs participate in classroom and school activities; educators help to coordinate available school resources.
