ELD Monthly
November 2020
Dear Families,
Last week we held our first virtual workshop. Thank you to all the families that attended! We discussed the purpose of our English Learner program and shared some concerns we are having as parents right now. A copy of the presentation is below for you to review.
Our next workshop will be focusing on navigating the technology to monitor your student's progress as well as assist them be successful. I will have some activities planned for us to dive into your student's SeeSaw, Google Classroom, or PowerSchool account as well as other programs. I look forward to "seeing" everyone and please reach out in advance if you have special requests!
These monthly workshops have three main purposes:
- A forum for families and the district to collaborate and have an open dialogue.
- A time for you all to act as advisors to the district. The state of California requires that all districts with 51 or more English learners have a District English Language Advisory Committee. This committee is meant to advise the district on various aspects of the English Learner program. We will ask for your opinions and ideas in each monthly meeting to guide this work.
- Many families have expressed a variety of challenges they are facing. These workshops will be structured to provide practical tools for challenges initiated by you, the families.
Sincerely,
Julia Braga
