Did you know that across Green Hills schools, there are nearly 900 English Learners representing 17 different language groups? And that number continues to grow each year!
This National Bilingual/Multilingual Learner Advocacy Month, we celebrate the students, families, and educators who make up our vibrant EL communities and the strengths that multilingualism brings to our schools.
Through our regional EL program, two GHAEA EL teachers currently support 50 students across eight partner districts, helping provide personalized language support and advocacy for multilingual learners. This work is guided and strengthened by our EL consultant, who partners with districts to build systems, support staff, and expand opportunities for students.
As more districts explore multilingual opportunities, we continue to recognize that language and culture are powerful assets – preparing students for success in college, careers, and beyond.
