The ESOL program is designed to help students that speak an additional

language at home other than English.  The ESOL program works with

students to promote learning in four educational learning domains at

 the school; reading, writing, listening and speaking.  Students that qualify

 for ESOL services at Blandford Elementary remain in their homerooms but

 receive additional service from the ESOL support teacher.  The ESOL teacher

has the ability to use two teaching methods to help the students.  The students

 can be pulled-out to the resource room for instruction from the

 ESOL teacher or the ESOL teacher can push-in and provide help in the general

education teacher’s room.  ESOL students in kindergarten (k) through

second (2^nd) grade will receive 45 minutes of service. Students in third (3^rd)

through fifth (5^th) grade will receive 50 minutes of service.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
