● Accelerate the acquisition of academic language to close opportunity gaps for EMLs, ensuring they have equitable access to high-quality instructional enrichment outside of traditional direct instruction;
● Deliver actionable data and reporting to monitor student progress toward English proficiency and content mastery.
