 * Intermediate -** Intermediate ELLs have a limited ability to use the English language to build foundational reading skills.


 * Advanced -** Advanced ELLs have the ability to use the English language, with second language acquisition support, to build foundational reading skills.


 * Advanced High -** Advanced high ELLs have the ability to use the English language, with minimal second language acquisition support, to build foundational reading skills.
