[quote=Anonymous]A lot of research is now showing that a major predictor of how ESOL students do in school (grades, grad rates) is the literacy level of their parents IN THEIR NATIVE LANGUAGE. What really matters is the parent's reading level - not whether they can read English. Someone who crunches the numbers for a local school system explained to me that MANY of the ESOL students in NOVA come from countries with very low literacy rates and that has a big impact on teaching and learning.[/quote]
