It can take from 4 to 7 years for an English language learner to acquire sufficient language skills to be fully integrated into the mainstream without a negative impact.
![Page 11: Designing the ESL Professional Learning Community](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56812a48550346895d8d8df0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
We believe that measuring the
progress of English language learners must take into account raw TAKS scores and on-time graduation rates as well as TAKS scale scores.

If the purpose of school is truly to ensure high levels of learning for all students, schools will
•Clarify what each student is expected to learn – the essential knowledge, skills, and dispositions -- of each course/subject – unit by unit
•Monitor each student’s learning on a timely basis through the use of frequent, formative common assessments
•Create systems to ensure students receive additional time and support if they are not learning
•Create systems to ensure students receive additional time and support if they are learning.

ESL teachers sponsor a club for ESL students so that they are included in the social activities of the school.
