This session will provide a deep dive into the State Assessment & Progress Monitoring component of the ESL Instructional Design: Lesson Planning and Curriculum category of the ESL program implementation rubric, designed to assist districts in program evaluation and enhancement.

• determine appropriate assessment options for the state assessment (STAAR) for emergent bilinguals served in the ESL program, and
• provide designated supports as necessary
