• Opportunities to develop students' confidence, self-assurance, and positive identity with their cultural heritage and the history of the United States;

• Opportunities for all personnel involved in the planning, development, and delivery of services to ELLs to be trained so that they have the knowledge that will enable them to offer the appropriate instruction and support; and

These are so that all MISD ELL students meet increasing state and national standards, graduate from high school under the Recommended of Distinguished state plans, select college or post-secondary educational advancement, and pursue lifetime work opportunities in a socially responsible manner.
