ED Continuing Efforts To Improve ELL Education For Newcomers.

Corey Mitchell writes at the Education Week (9/23) “Learning the Language” blog that Libia Gil, the head of ED’s Office of English Language Acquisition, said that the department is “developing a tool kit specifically for educators who work with immigrant English-learners who are new to the country,” noting that the guide “will mark the latest federal effort to provide an equitable education for ELLS, the largest-growing segment of the United States’ public school population.”
