Point Isabel ISD reports bilingual program data: 704 emerging bilingual students in 2024-25
Summary
District staff reported dual-language and bilingual-program statistics for 2024-25, including 704 emerging bilingual students, parental denials near 2%, and campus-level proficiency progress rates; the board will receive monthly updates.
Point Isabel ISD staff presented an overview of the district's bilingual and dual-language offerings for 2024-25 and shared student-performance data by campus. Presenters described the district's three bilingual program strands (two-way dual-language immersion for pre-K to second grade; transitional early-exit for grades 3—; and pull-out ESL for grades 6—2) and reviewed enrollment and exit criteria tied to TELPAS and STAR assessments.
"For 2425, we can see that we had 704 emerging bilingual total," the presenter said, laying out campus-level counts and noting parental denial rates of roughly 2% (36 denials in 2425). The report also showed progress rates by campus: Derry Elementary (39% of EB students progressed at least one proficiency level), Gera (35%), the junior high (23%) and early college high school (17%). Staff said they will provide monthly updates to the board on bilingual-student outcomes and exit decisions.
