ESOL
The goal of the Conway Public Schools ESOL instructional program is to emphasize the acquisition of English language skills while helping students improve their performance in the academic areas and increase their self-confidence. Students will be enrolled in the content-area instruction with modifications made for language proficiency. The ESOL instructional program provided will be based on the language proficiency levels, age levels, and prior schooling of the ELL or LEP students.
