BOARD APPROVAL
Carmel USD gets board approval for English Language Learner support through Paper
All ELLs and recently reclassified ELLs have access to real-time help from multilingual tutors
"The nice thing is you can get tutoring in both English and Spanish, which is really valuable if you have a Spanish-speaking parent. The Spanish-speaking parent can go in with the kid when they’re at home, they can ask questions in Spanish, and that parent can help them in Spanish even if the kid’s doing this stuff in English. They can have that interaction, so it does provide access for those parents as well to the tutors with their child.”
— Blaise DiGoralmo, Chief Academic Officer
