Understanding and Supporting the Educational Needs of Recently Arrived Immigrant English Learner StudentS: Lessons for State and Local Education Agencies

OASD ESOL was one of 6 districts nationwide chosen to participate in this CCSSO study of district supports for newcomer students

UNHCR defines a refugee as “a person who is outside his or her country of nationality or habitual residence; has a well-founded fear of being persecuted because of his or her race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion; and is unable or unwilling to avail him— or herself of the protection of that country, or to return there, for fear of persecution” 

The Oshkosh Area School District has always welcomed students with refugee backgrounds (SRBs).  OASD ESOL staff, specialized SRB support staff, classroom teachers & assistants, and pupil services, provide a nurturing, learning environment for students with refugee backgrounds as well as professional development for school staff to ensure successful student pathways.  See Chapter 12 of the ESOL Program Plan for additional information.
