In the Town of North Providence, the model for ESL students is a pull-out model. Each child that qualifies for ESL services is placed in a grade appropriate class and receives instruction from the classroom teacher.

Additionally, elligible ESL students receive supportive small class instruction from the ESL teacher.
 
In ESL, students follow an integrated curriculum program in which they develop their reading, writing, listening and speaking skills in English.
 
Parents/guardians are informed of the services and are invited to have their children participate in the ESL program.
 
When the child has met the exit criteria set fourth by the RI Department of Education and has realized success in his/her English language acquisition, then the child exits the ESL program and returns to his/her neighborhood school.
