Progress on English Language Proficiency

The English Language Proficiency Assessments measure development across the English Language Development Standards (read more here) on the WIDA ACCESS assessment. English Language Learners are students receiving support for English as a second language. The Progress on English Language Proficiency rate shows the percentage of students who met their expected growth standard. Students who have English Language Proficiency Assessment scores from either 2019 or 2020 can show growth to be included in the 2021 Progress on English Language Proficiency rate.
