He discusses the background of newcomer programs and pedagogies of language and content learning for adolescent newcomers; the program within the context of state standards, its history, and the school actors' trajectories and perspectives on supporting diverse students; student outcomes; and possible program improvements for the future that would challenge English-centricity and focus on understanding students’ home language literacy and prior education in program policies and practices.
