Our ESOL teacher, Mrs. Darling and our Bilingual Facilitator, Ms. Nambiar, recently held an informative session for our fifth grade families of English Learners. They learned about the ELD program and WIDA Access, but most importantly, built connections between families that will carry over to middle school next year! We love to see our community connect and #BelongGrowSucceed together!
