Mission

The mission of the Renaissance Academy Charter School (RACS) ELD (English Language Development) Program is to ensure academic achievement for all English Learners by equipping them with the language skills necessary to function comparably to their Native-English peers in academic and social situations. This mission will empower all EL’s to be successful in their academic careers and as members of society.

The ELD program will serve as a support system for the EL until he/she is able to achieve independent academic success. It is our mission to involve all educators, family members, and our community in the education of our EL’s as we recognize helping them find the paths to success is all of our responsibility.

Summary

It is also designed to meet the requirements demanded by the state of Pennsylvania’s Department of Education and the Title 22, Chapter 4, Section 4.26 of the Curriculum Regulations.
