Wyandanch Union Free School District is a suburban school district located in Suffolk County, one of the two counties in Long Island, New York. The current population is approximately 10,546 with a year 2000 median household income of $40,664. It is largely a minority district (81 percent black and 19 percent Hispanic) with 72 percent of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch under the National School Lunch Program. Annually, 70 to 120 Wyandanch students are rendered homeless with many in foster care.
Wyandanch is described in its NYSED profile as an "economically, socially, and educationally isolated" district.
Basic Interpersonal Communication Skills (BICS) takes usually six months to two years to develop. It takes seven to ten years for students to develop Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency (CALP). My students are working hard to develop both social and academic language. Please support!
