[quote=Anonymous]DD was classified as needing ESOL help when she entered kindergarten, mostly because she refused to speak much during the evaluation they did of her English skills. We indicated she was a native speaker of German/Spanish/English when we enrolled her. We refused the ESOL instruction because we knew her skills were fine, she knew all three languages equally and was already reading in English before kindergarten. Fast forward to third grade, she tested as GT and got into a magnet program for 4th grade (she did not attend). So in all, I think it did not hurt her at all. Being a speaker of other languages has been a plus for her at school in many ways.[/quote]
