In the final part of our three-part English Language Learner series we talk with an ESL specialist who spent the last five years turning a large 5A high school from an intimidating gauntlet into a home for our beginner level and new-to-the-country English Language Learners. She shares her journey of discovering that - just because high school students don't cry when they arrive at your high school in the morning - it doesn't mean they don't need your emotional support just as much as that clinging elementary school kid. Her compassionate system of affective intervention with both students AND teachers has resulted in impressive increased academic success - increased rates of credit completion, increased STAAR passing and the achievement of some pretty lofty higher education goals.
