A Recipe for English Learners: One Award-Winning Principal's Success Story
Manage episode 312426742 series 3227453
Carrie Weldon never intended to be the principal of an elementary school. A secondary specialist, Carrie was surprised when her district asked her to take over Ashley Elementary. Carrie probably had little idea at the time how much of an impact she would have on the school. Ashley Elementary is located in a rural area of Utah called Vernal and is a Title I school with an emerging population of English Language Learners (ELLs). Early on, Carrie noticed that her ELLs were performing and making progress less well than other student groups. It was this knowledge that set her on the way to making improvements that would get her school on the national map. Listen to how she did it in this episode.
