Working Group Releases Recommendations for ESEA Reauthorization
The Working Group on ELL Policy has released a set of recommendations for how the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) can best foster improved educational outcomes for English Language Learners. These recommendations focus on five areas of ESEA policy: the identification and classification of ELL students; appropriate assessment of ELLs’ knowledge and skills in academic content; development of a stronger accountability system that fosters and accurately monitors improvement for these students; human capital policies to ensure access to high-quality teachers and teaching; and the capacity-building role of Title III.
