The Arkansas School Improvement Plan
Do you have questions about it?

Every school has a School Improvement Plan that serves as a blueprint for important actions focused on increasing student achievement. The School Improvement Plan, often nicknamed the SIP, is “a living document” that continues to change throughout the school year, as results call for adjustments.

Read the School Improvement Plan FAQ.

English Language Development

In Fall of 2009-10 school year, Aurora Public Schools will begin implementing a new program to better serve our students who are English Language Learners (ELL).  This new program will provide many more students with services for which they have always been eligible.  Our goal is to ensure that ELLs have equal and meaningful access to the educational services offered by our school district.

The Colorado Department of Education has recently identified content standards in English proficiency for English language learners. Federal and state legislation have mandated a new English proficiency test, the CELA (Colorado English Language Assessment), to assess these standards. all kindergarten through twelfth grade students who have been identified as having a language background other than English in the state of Colorado will participate in a statewide assessment in the areas of English proficiency in reading, writing, speaking, listening and comprehension.
