There is a persistent achievement gap between English Language Learners (ELLs) and English proficient (EP) students. Additionally, the ELL student population makes up a growing share of public school students (Kena et al., 2016). Educators and policy makers have a stake in improving the academic outcomes for ELL students. Studies have begun to identify the relationship of out-of-school factors (such as cultural norms and empowerment of families) on ELL achievement. Previous research identified several factors, such as access to medical care and food, family relations, and extended learning opportunities, that contribute to the achievement gap between ELL and EP students (Berliner, 2009). ELL students with additional risk factors (e.g., low-income family, single-parent income, and under-resourced school) are at a greater risk for underachievement than ELL students with protective factors such as dual-parent home and high levels of school engagement (Orecchia, 2014). The current study extended existing literature by examining how demographic factors, such as gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, language fluency, and special education, are related to ELL students' achievement and student behavior in a specific school district. Relationships between students' demographic variables within academic and behavior/social-emotional domains were analyzed. There were no significant differences in the academic outcomes identified for ELL and EP students in this study. ELL status also did not significantly predict the behavior of participants in this study. Findings demonstrate that ELL and EP students are performing at about the same levels in both the academic and behavior/social-emotional domains. Implications for practice that may inform resource allocations will be discussed.
