Knight-Rorie, Whitney

I could not be more lucky to work with our team of Secondary EL Teachers in DeSoto County! This group of teachers is committed to providing our English Learners with high quality language development instruction each and every day! Our teachers use Schoology to instruct traditional and virtual students in the domains of reading, writing, speaking, and listening based on English Language Development Standards. Students work toward and meet individualized language development goals while scheduled for the state-tested EL class.
