ENGLISH LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Our English Language Development Instructional Program provides Multilingual Learners (MLs) in the Montezuma Cortez School District with opportunities to develop their social and academic English language skills while building on our students’ diverse cultural strengths and background knowledge. Our District values the role our multilingual and multicultural families play in their child’s education, and we view Multilingual Learners as an asset in our Montezuma Cortez school culture. We encourage all families to stay engaged in their child’s English language development process and look forward to partnering with families, parents and the Montezuma Cortez Community as we collaboratively support our children through their academic growth and success in the ELD program and the Montezuma Cortez RE-1 School District.
