, improve your grammar and read with understanding.Lewis Palmer School District ELL Program Exceeds Colorado State GoalsThe results are in from the January 2011 Colorado English Language Assessment (CELA). Individual results will be sent to parents in June. Colorado school districts are held accountable to meet two goals. Goal #1 is for 50% of a district's ELL population to make progress - move from Beginner to Early Intermediate, Early Intermediate to Intermediate, Intermediate to Proficient, Proficient to Advanced. LPSD exceeded this goal by 26% - 76.23% of our ELL students made progress, The second goal requires that 6% of a district's ELL population achieve English fluency (an advanced score on the CELA). LPSD exceeded this goal with 54.83% of the ELL population achieving fluency.
We are extremely proud of our ELL students for this success as well as their ELL teachers, classroom teachers and families. Great job!
