Hasmik Danielian, a co-principal at Hoover High School, spoke to
about 1,000 educators last week at a student accountability institute
in Santa Barbara.
Danielian spoke about how schools with large populations of
English-language learners create master planning schedules for the
school year. Out of its 2,678 total students, Hoover has 882 English
language learners, which is about 33% of the school's population,
officials said.
Hoover uses a language appraisal team, made up of administrators,
teachers, district officials and counselors to study student progress
and determine which classes to place English language learners into,
Danielian said.
A representative from the Assn. of California School
Administrators this week visited Hoover to observe the school's
English language learners program and the school's co-principal model
of leadership, Danielian said.
