New Hope-Soleburys’s Language Instructional Educational Program (LIEP) supports students for whom English is not their first language/home language as well as Districts to provide ESSA-aligned Language Instruction Education Programs and best practices for English Learners. The LIEP Department of NHSD lies within the Education Office.

NHSD’s ELD Teachers each hold Level I or Level II PA Teaching Certifications as well as an ESL Specialist certification. Teachers use a variety of curricular materials, including district programs when applicable and appropriate. Level of support is determined by the District and/or placement school with input from the LIEP teacher.
