When a school has 21 or more English Learners, it must form an English Learner Advisory Committee (ELAC).
The
primary purpose of ELAC is to advise the school principal and school
staff regarding the instructional programs and support services for
English Learners. ELAC is also responsible for advising the School Site
Council (SSC) and reviewing the Site Plan for Student Achievement
(SPSA).
The school is responsible for training and providing
appropriate support to all ELAC members. By doing so, ELAC members will
be well-informed and thus be able to communicate meaningful input and
advice to the school about its efforts to educate English Learners.
If you'd like to get involved in the ELAC, contact the office @ (619) 475-2020.
