Existing law requires each school district that has one or more pupils who are English learners, and to the extent required by federal law, a county office of education and a charter school, to assess the English language development of each of those pupils in order to determine their level of proficiency. Existing law requires the State Department of Education, with the approval of the State Board of Education, to establish procedures for conducting the assessment and for the reclassification of a pupil from English learner to English proficient. Existing law requires the reclassification procedures developed by the department to use multiple criteria, including, but not limited to, 4 specified criteria, in determining whether to reclassify a pupil as proficient in English. This bill would limit the use of multiple criteria by requiring the use of only the 4 specified criteria.
