The Department of Exceptional Children also provides programs and services for students who have learning needs that lie outside the usual range of instructional differentiation in general education classrooms. The Covington Independent English Learners (EL) Program is designed to assist students with limited English proficiency to speak, read, write and comprehend the English language and to meet challenging state content goals to close the gap between limited English proficient students and other students. Limited English proficient students are given instruction to successfully attain English and participate in all-English classrooms. For information on interpreters, please contact the number below.
