LEP Language Instruction Report

September 4, 2012

Dear Select County and District Superintendents and Charter School Administrators:

TITLE III LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENT STUDENT PROGRAM ANNUAL REPORT

The Elementary and Secondary Education Act, Part A, Section 3121, requires each Title III Limited English Proficient Student Program subgrantee to report on language instruction programs and activities they conduct. The California Department of Education (CDE) has created an online report to comply with this requirement to report on the 2011–12 school year. This online report will be available from September 10, 2012, through September 21, 2012.

The report questions relate to the implementation of language instruction programs in your local educational agency during the 2011–12 school year, whether or not paid for with

Title III funds. Consortium leads should submit a separate report for each consortium member. The Title III Director or a person knowledgeable about the Title III program in your agency should complete this report.

You may find the online report on the CDE Title III Limited English Proficient Student Program Annual Report Web page at http://www2.cde.ca.gov/title3edprogram/lepreportlogon.aspx. You will need the personal identification number (PIN) provided on the enclosed Login Information document in order to obtain access to the report.

If you have any questions regarding this subject, please contact Pamela Lucas, Associate Governmental Program Analyst, Language Policy and Leadership Office, by phone at 916-323-5739 or by e-mail at plucas@cde.ca.gov.

Sincerely,

Karen Cadiero-Kaplan, Director
English Learner Support Division
