My Students

Our school is a newcomer program that provides a warm welcome to students in middle and high school who are new to the country. Our students are 100% SLIFE, which means they have limited or interrupted formal education.

Our school goal is to teach English Language Learners not only the English language but also academic and social skills, which will promote successful future academic and social endeavors.

Increasing the use of technology allows students to receive support in their native language and provide more opportunities for college and career readiness.

My Project

As a way to support and meet our school-wide goals, our school has developed units around Community, Traditions and Culture, and Civic Responsibilities.

Hands-on projects for these units will serve as a way to assess the students’ direction following and also provide a way to give back to our community.

First, we will be making no-sew blankets to donate to the Child Life Program for the ICU at our local hospital. The second project will be fleece scarves that the students will make and then leave in places around the city to help those who need a little warmth during the winter season. The projects will include listening, speaking, reading, and writing components as they write reflections and record how-to videos using the technology.
