Title III

The purpose of Title III is to ensure that limited English proficient students develop English proficiency and meet the same academic content and academic achievement standards that other children are expected to meet. Schools must use these funds to implement language instruction educational programs that carry out activities that use approaches based on scientific research. The district is responsible for meeting annual measurable achievement objectives established for LEP students, making adequate yearly progress, and annually measuring the English proficiency of LEP students in the district. The plan for addressing the needs of LEP students should be developed in consultation with teachers, researchers, administrators, and parents.
