Florida ELL Students Get an Extra Catch-Up Year
Immigrant students in Florida now
have two years-instead of one-
after entering public schools before
they must take state achievement
tests.
U.S. Education Secretary Arne
Duncan granted Florida the waiver
in December in response to a recent
influx of students from Central
America who fled violence in their
countries. Miami-Dade County, for
example, recently added about 2,000
children from Honduras, El Salvador
and Guatemala to its 77,000
English-language learners.
The Miami-Dade County Englishlanguage learning population
is larger than the total student
population of many school districts.
For years, ELL students in Florida
who entered the U.S. school system
had one year to catch up to their
peers before they had to start taking
state achievement tests.
Under those rules, many
immigrant children underperformed
on the tests after a year of
instruction, lowering school and
district test scores-and the federal
funding tied to performance. Now,
their test scores will count only after
two years.
