This webinar will present the key features of five different program models for serving English learners (EL). These models are described in OSSE’s Delivering Services to English Learners: Policies and Procedures for Administrators, Instructional Leaders, and Teachers in the District of Columbia, which is OSSE’s reference document for LEAs on EL policies and procedures. Drawing on both federal and state policy and research, the webinar will address:

• Why it is critical to have an effective EL program model
• Similarities and differences between EL program models
• What does not constitute a program model for serving ELs
• OSSE’s School Readiness Reflection Tool for planning next steps for your EL program model

Information in this webinar will help LEAs to prepare their English learner (EL) programs for a smooth start of the school year.
