Flow Chart

Newcomer Program: 

We are fortunate, at Fort Collins High School, to house one of the four locations within Poudre School District for Newcomer students. The Newcomer program is designed for students who have no previous experience (or very limited previous experience) with English. We currently have students from all over the world in our newcomer and ELD program here at FCHS. Languages represented include Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, and Vietnamese.
