EducationTraining & Onboarding4HighTeacher$ implied

ESOL teachers lack in-depth training on how to support special needs students, forcing them to self-educate through Google and outside reading.

Existing professional development is often one-off sessions or restricted to certain teacher roles (ELA, SPED, math), leaving ESOL teachers without sustained, role-specific training on dual-identified students.
