Beginner and Intermediate Students receive between 6 and 9 hours per week, Advanced students receive 3 hours per week and Transitional<br />
students have tested out of ESL but receive testing accommodations for up to 2 years after testing out of ESL. The only way to receive ESL services<br />
is to test in via the LAB-R exam, and the only way to stop ESL services is to test out of ESL with the NYSESLAT exam by testing Proficient in all four<br />
domains (listening, speaking, reading and writing).
