Featured Educator: Jessica LeCrone

"I appreciate how the standards make me focus on the specialized language skills required in different content areas. I have to ask myself questions like, “What kind of language does a student need to be successful in science, or math?” ... The standards hold me accountable to make sure I am addressing the needs of my students in every subject area."

– Jessica LeCrone, ESL teacher, North Carolina
