What is ELD?

Welcome to the English Language Development (ELD) page at Glen Burnie Park! We are committed to offering comprehensive resources and assistance to English Learners (ELs) to ensure they achieve academic success and linguistic proficiency. At Glen Burnie Park, our goal is to create a nurturing environment where ELs excel academically, socially, and linguistically. Our mission is to empower every learner with the language skills they need for future success. Our vision includes providing readily downloadable resources to support guardians and educators in creating an inclusive learning environment that benefits both our English learners and all students.
