This survey inquires whether a student’s first language is a language other than English, whether a student’s primary language is one other than English, and whether a language other than English is used at home. Ifat least one of the answers is yes, the student is tested to determine his/her English proficiency. Based on the results of this assessment, the student is either classified as an English Language Learner (ELL) or deemed proficient in English. Depending on the English proficiency levels, ELL students are enrolled in specific ESOL courses tailored to meet students’language needs. English proficiency levels for ELL students in M-DCPS range from ESOL 1 (lowest) to ESOL 4 (highest) . The English proficiency levels of students are reassessed annually, and the appropriate ESOL placement is determined based on the testing results. ACCESS for ELLs is currently used as the State-mandated English Language Proficiency test. ACCESS for ELLs stands for Assessing Comprehension and Communication in English State-to-State for English Language Learners. Once it is ascertained that a student has acquired English proficiency and satisfied the State requirements for exit from the ESOL program, the student exits the program and is re-classified as formerly ELL (ESOL level 5) .  \nIn this report, students' achievement in the ESOL program is disaggregated by grade and ESOL level. The academic achievement results of former ELL students disaggregated by the number of years since ESOL exit are included in this report. For comparison purposes, the performance of students who have never been classified as ELL is also included in the report. The time since ESOL exit is calculated as of May 1, 2025, when depicting academic achievement results.  \nSECTION I  \nSTUDENT DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS  \nThis section describes certain demographic characteristics of ELL students in the District as of February 2025. During the year between February 2024 and 2025, the number ofELL students in grades K-12 in the District increased slightly from 80,497 to 81,841, a 2% increase. The proportion of ELL students in the District also increased from approximately 24% to 25% during the same period.  \nTable 1 below exhibits demographic features for all K-12 stu","cbCaihif5zO4lEvA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihif5zO4lEvA","pdf",450825,22,"English","# Introduction\n# Section I.
