Article: School Culture and English Language Learners
English language learners (ELLs) are the fastest growing subpopulation in the country with the highest dropout rate and the lowest graduation rate of all subgroups. Immigrant children face many challenges as a result. English language learners come to school with a wide range of life and educational experiences due to their diverse backgrounds. As such, communication becomes a great barrier to involvment, while culture shock sets in. Culture shock is dealing with the stress of something new and unfamiliar. The role of the school and the teacher is critical in creating a culturally inviting, safe and welcoming atmosphere that supports the development of ELLs as bilingual learners. Teachers have a unique opportunity to utilize the culture and experiences that ELLs bring to school to expand the learning of all students in the classroom. Reinforcing the effort of all students helps them see a clear relationship between what they do and what they achieve. Through careful planning and open communication, your school will not only make the first day of orientation for new ELLs an extremely pleasant experience, but you will also provide an atmosphere of inclusion and belonging that will result in a student's academic, social and personal success.
