At Raney ...
We have three important goals. Our goal is to work together collaboratively with parents, students, and teachers for the overall success of the student. Within that goal, we strive to ensure that each English Learner improves at least one English Proficiency Assessment for California (ELPAC) level each academic year, which means improving in the domains of listening, speaking, reading and writing. By working hard together, we can be sure that each English Learner becomes proficient or advanced on their annual California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) exams.
The program for English Learners at Raney is extensive. The program is about increasing the English language proficiency of students so that they can attain the academic standards. We provide educational experiences and services that enable an EL student to be successful in the regular education classroom and maintain satisfactory progress within the appropriate grade level. Raney tries to acclimate English Learners with the varied cultures and customs associated with the United States while maintaining their own ethnic pride. The English Learner program at Raney also strives to facilitate effective communication patterns with classroom teachers, principals, counselors, support staff, and parents in a fashion that supports the educational, social, emotional, physical, and developmental well-being of each individual English Learner. Again, your student's success is our success!
