Title

  • English Learners in Illinois SY 2017-18 Statistical Report

Description

  • The Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) is committed to the cognitive, linguistic, and socio-emotional development of all children in Illinois. ISBEs Multilingual Department is focused on ensuring that students with diverse linguistic repertoires and those who may benefit from additional support have equitable access to academic instruction in English.These students also must be provided with access to all educational opportunities to which they are entitled. A home language survey is filled out by families who enroll their children in public schools in Illinois. Potential English Learners (ELs) are screened for English language proficiency (ELP) using an approved English language screening instrument. Students who do not meet the criteria of English proficiency on the ELP screener are identified as English Learners. Students maintain that status until they achieve ELP on the WIDA ACCESS for ELLs, which is the annual ELP assessment in Illinois.
