English Language Learners

The goal of the English Language Learner (ELL) program is to facilitate the education of an English language learner whose native language is other than English and who is not yet proficient in English.

All instruction in the ELL program is in English and incorporates the four basic skill areas of listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The curriculum in all structured English immersion courses is aligned with the Arizona State Standards as assessed by AIMS.

In 2006, the Glendale Union High School District ELL program was recognized by the Arizona Department of Education as recipient of the English Acquisition Services Leadership 'Spotlight on Success' award. The ELL program was also honored as a Model ELL Program by the Arizona School Public Relations Association in 2006.

English Language Learners coordinator is Karen Merritt.
