Global Citizens

Global Citizens Overview

Mission Statement
The mission of our small learning community (SLC) is to produce English language learners as citizens who are socially and academically prepared to communicate and function in a global society.  Our SLC’s mission is to make the transition to a new culture and environment as smooth as possible for our students.  We believe that language is developed using the first or home language that is spoken in the home and that is used to facilitate the acquisition of a new language.  We support and foster cultural and language diversity and believe that it is important for students and families to maintain their home language, home culture, and identity.  Our multicultural staff exemplifies our support for diversity.

Vision Statement
In Global Citizens, our vision is to ensure that English language learners have access to meaningful and rigorous academic instruction.  Our small learning community is dedicated to creating a sense of belonging by building connections and trust with students through celebrating diversity, showing kindness and support, and promoting tolerance and respect for all students and staff.  Our community goals are to teach and support students through cultural responsiveness, multiculturalism, differentiation and scaffolding so that students have a value for learning, graduate from high school, and pursue a higher education.
