English Learners (ELs)/Multilingual Learners (MLs)

Supporting high-quality instruction designed to serve linguistically and culturally diverse students

 

All students deserve equitable access to education. Federal law requires schools to identify English learners and provide them with language instruction to ensure “a meaningful opportunity to participate in educational programs.”

This page is designed to support families of English learners and Multilingual learners in our state.  Language is a powerful tool for connection and growth, here, you will find resources, tips, and information to help you engage with your child's education and support their language development.
