The use of Rosetta Stone is in addition to students’ Designated and Integrated English Language Development throughout the instructional day. The District's English Learner Leadership team comprised of teachers, counselors, and administrators have developed plans to support students and families by communicating with parents regarding the goals of the program, monitoring student usage, and providing flexible learning spaces on campus before and after school. Rosetta Stone Foundations for K-12 (Silver) is a fixed term license for online access to language lessons and solo activities and stories in one of all commercially available languages and all available levels for use on Windows and Mac computers and includes administrator tools and access to all product specific mobile applications for iOS or select Android devices.
