Use this rubric to review an ASL/English bilingual program as a whole and agree on where it stands. It covers fourteen areas, including leadership, classroom environment, language use, instruction and assessment, curriculum, technology, Program Identity, related services, family involvement, facilities, staffing, interpreters, school climate, and student life. Each area is rated on a four-level scale, from Emerging to Developing to Proficient to Exemplary, so teams can name current practice honestly and set priorities. Use it during a partnership review to ground planning in a shared, evidence-based picture of the program.
