  Case: Misplaced Student
A new student to your school has been placed in your ESOL class. However, during classroom instruction you find that he is at a very high level of English proficiency, and appears to not need any ESOL instruction. When you bring this to administrations attention, they provide the documentation claiming that the child be placed in an ESOL classroom because his language spoken at home is Spanish. What do you do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Students are placed in EL classes because of the home survey. Make sure you document when the student did or did not receive help on work samples. I would especially document oral and written expression samples. If the student is functioning as high, he will test out at the end of the year. In the meantime, if the student is receiving services, I would talk with the teachers about amending his services.
