Abstract | The federal government has played a role over the years in providing resources to school districts, colleges and universities, and research and technical assistance centers for the purpose of transitioning students to English. The evolving educational standards movement and No Child Left Behind (NCLB) have begun to reshape how the federal government conceives of and supports programs for elementary and secondary school students whose native language is not English. The Council of the Great City Schools conducted a survey of its members in February 2004 to determine how Title III of No Child Left Behind was being implemented. The survey was developed with substantial input from the organization's Task Force on Bilingual, Immigrant, and Refugee Education and its bilingual and ESL staff directors. The three-page survey sought information on funding and services provided under Title III and data on what districts expected to achieve with the new funding. Forty-seven member districts (77 percent) responded with data from their 2003-2004 school year, the second year of NCLB. Results were compiled and analyzed during the spring and summer of 2004. This paper is based on the results of the survey and gives an early status report on how Title III of NCLB is being implemented in America's major urban schools. Appended are: (1) Districts Returning Surveys and Contact Information; (2) Survey Form; and (3) About the Council of the Great City Schools. (Contains 6 graphs and 9 tables.) (ERIC). |
