GOAL Goal 2B: AMAO 2 - English Proficiency

Goal 2B: AMAO 2 – English Proficiency: By June 2012, the percentage of English learners in language instructional education programs 5 or more years attaining English language proficiency will increase from 41.9 % to 45.1 %in order move toward state-defined expectations for meeting the CELDT criterion for English-language proficiency. [Required per Elementary and Secondary Education Act, sections 3116(a) & (b) and 3122(a) (3) (A) (ii)]. Title: Increasing the percentage of English learners that will attain English Proficiency in AMAO 2 to meet the target Description: Long Term English Learners often do not receive adequate English Language Development Instruction. English Learners are often not placed in rigorous or grade level courses due to their language proficiency status. If English learners continue to receive explicit ELD instruction once they reach middle levels of English proficiency and as they move into early advanced and advanced levels in CELDT, they can rapidly attain native-like levels of oral proficiency and avoid the plateau many experience before becoming advanced speakers of English (Improving Instruction for ELs; Research-Based Approaches page 54 Saunders and Goldenberg).
