AEMP - Academic English Mastery Program

Language is foundational to learning and success in school and mastery of standard American English-the language of instruction in American schools- is essential in order to assure all students equal access to the core standards-based curriculum, post-secondary educational opportunities, and career options.

The Academic English Mastery Program is a research based intervention model that supports Standards Based Instruction by building on the language, culture and experience of standard English Learners in order to support English language acquisition, literacy development and learning.

AEMP's Philosophy

Language serves as the foundation for learning and success in school.  Therefore, mastery of Standard American English is essential if we are to ensure that all students have equal access to:

• The Educational Curriculum
• Educational Opportunities After High School
• Career Options
