ESSA - Title 1 funds - to support students in low SES communities.  This support is portrayed in many programs - nutrition, after school, educational supports.   Title 3 - provides structure  emergent bilingual.

Castaneda V. Pickard -- highlights of the case - Mandates EL programs to take "appropriate action" -- to address the needs in our EL programs.  Based upon sound education theory.  Evaluates to determine effective  ways in helping the students.

Though this is helpful, there are some areas that need to be evaluated and hopeful there will be more supports in other court cases.

Significant case laws that impacted ELL students include Lau vs Nichols, which protected students from falling into a "sink or swim" situation and guaranteed ELL students meaningful education. The Lau Case then became the foundation of EOOA, establishing the rights of ELL students as Federal Law.

ESSA improved upon NCLB because it afforded states more flexibility in ELL teaching. Within that, states were able to create education plans that are more relevant to their populations. NCLB focused on rigorous testing and federal planning while ESSA planed to uplift students by increasing equity and program quality.

ESSA and Title 1 Standardized testing hurts our students who need accommodations that are restricted unless there is an IEP of 504 plan. It definitely is a step up from NCLB.

The Brown vs. Board of Education case established that ELLs can't be fully separated from the other students. The 1974 case, Lau vs. Nichols determined that it was not OK to put students in a sink or swim situation by putting non-proficient students in a mainstream classroom. The determination was that states must give an equal education opportunities. This opened the door for bilingual education programs. The Equal Opportunities Act was then established in 1974.

One big change that our group noticed that while the VII Bilingual education Act allowed for district and states  to have larger freedom to implement EL programs and services but with the creation of ESSA it created a more streamlined approach that connects more laws to implement consistently across the state. This helps create a higher level of structure and expectations that demands districts use these funds to implement ELL requirements properly.  Erika, Carrie and Julie
