Guidance on Programming for ELLs
 Transitional Guidance on Identification, Assessment, Placement, and Reclassification of English Language Learners provides guidance formerly found in Guidance in using MEPA Results to Plan Sheltered English Immersion (SEI) Instruction and Make Reclassification Decisions for Limited English Proficient Students (September 2009) and Implementation Guidance on SEI for Low Incidence Districts http://www.doe.mass.edu/ell/guidance_laws.html

The district uses qualified staff and appropriate procedures and assessments to identify students who are ELLs and to assess their level of English proficiency in reading, writing, speaking, and listening.
