Definición

  • State education agencies reported that the number of limited-English-proficient students in the nation's schools rose from 2.1 million in the 1990–1991 academic year to more than 3.7 million in 1999–2000. A con-gressionally mandated study found that these students received lower grades, were judged by their teachers to have lower academic abilities, and scored below their classmates on standardized tests of reading and math.
