English Learner (EL) Services

ELs are protected under the Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and under the Equal Educational Opportunities Act of 1974 EEOA). The EEOA requires that public Schools take "appropriate action to overcome language barriers that impede equal participation by [their] students in [their] students in [their] instructional programs" (Education Law Center, 2015)

The SFPS Multicultural and Bilingual Department complies with Federal and State guidelines to appropriately identify and serve ALL EL’s in our public schools.
