The Immigrant Students and Secondary Schools Reform Project, funded by the Carnegie Corporation of New York, is one of the English Language Learner and Secondary/Middle School Reform projects. Its objective is to strengthen the capacity of state education agencies and districts to improve delivery of educational services to English language learners (ELLs) enrolled in high schools undergoing reform. To achieve this objective, CCSSO has undertaken the following tasks:
- Developed and administered a survey of the states and school districts that are supported by the Carnegie Corporation's High School Reform Initiative. The survey elicited information regarding state policies and practices focused on high school reform generally and services to high school LEP students.
- Researched and prepared a policy paper documenting the findings of the survey questionnaire.
- Developed a compendium of successful programs and approaches for the education of ELL students in secondary schools.
- Planned and convened one national meeting of state/district/school teams focusing on overall high school reform and services to English language learners.
