Ponder on this…
“Successful schools use data- not for accountability, something that is done to it from outside sources; but rather as responsibility, a means of making rational decisions responding to intrinsic obligations”

History of WiDA
North Carolina adopted the WIDA standards for ELLs in the 2008-2009 school year.
ESL teachers use these standards, alongside the content standards of North Carolina Standard Course of Study to meet the needs of students enrolled in an ESL program.
ALL teachers use these standards to build and differentiate instruction and assessment for English Language Learners.
