Help for parents of ESOL students
When you connect with your child every day, your child benefits for life. When he or she knows you care and are concerned about education, the following occurs:
Achievement in school improves; students earn higher grades and test scores and enroll in higher-level programs.
Children want to go to school.
Courses are passed, credits earned and students are promoted to the next grade.
Self-confidence improves.
Children have better social skills and behavior at home and at school.
Students graduate from high school and go on to postsecondary education.
