English Learners have historically graduated at lower rates than their peers, therefore, effective interventions are of the utmost importance for these at-risk students. This session provides a better understanding of educational practices, cultural norms, and transcripts from around the world to build a more empathetic and culturally competent student experience.

Participants will learn about the top immigrant student populations represented across the United States. Apart from cultural norms and learning educational practices from each respective country, educators will be provided with intentional transition recommendations to supporting the whole-child. Additionally, interpreting foreign transcripts at a curriculum level is a challenge for many US schools. Therefore, practical information regarding the interpretation of these documents along with credible online resources will be discussed to help participants make the most efficient education decisions, with the highest impact for student success.

This session will be provided via Zoom. A link to access the training will be emailed to registered participants prior to the session.  Please check “My Account” on the ESC registration page to ensure your email address in our ESC6 system is correct and associated with your school district.  Arrangements will be made with participants to receive session materials.
