Valley Mills ISD reviews 2024–25 ESL report and recent assessment results
Summary
District curriculum staff presented the 2024–25 ESL report, describing how students are identified as Emerging Bilingual, the pull-out ESL program, TELPAS and STAAR results across elementary, junior high and high school, and professional development attended by ESL teachers.
Mr. Jones (Curriculum/Instruction) presented the district's 2024–25 ESL report, explaining how students qualify as Emerging Bilingual and how the pull-out ESL program operates. The report included TELPAS and STAAR test results for elementary, junior high and high school, and a grade-level breakdown of ESL student counts; the minutes state copies of test results were provided to each board member but do not list specific scores in the public minutes.
District staff also summarized professional development attended by ESL teachers during the 2024–25 school year and the district's intervention structure (WIN groups) across K–5 to close learning gaps before STAAR testing in April. The minutes record that K–2 classes adjusted intervention groups as students progressed; no specific follow-up actions or targets were listed in the public minutes.
