ELEVATING ACCESS FOR ENGLISH LEARNERS IN MASTER SCHEDULING 

 

Master scheduling plays a critical role in ensuring equitable access to rigorous, appropriate coursework for students designated as English Learners (EL). Research shows that EL students are often under-enrolled in core content and advanced courses, limiting their academic opportunities and post secondary pathways. The Elevating Access service empowers educational leaders to design schedules that ensure EL students have equal access to courses, instructional support, and pathways for success.
