The Task D160 report presents information on current and planned state certification requirements for bilingual education and English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) teachers, and the ways in which these requirements address or do not address the challenge of preparing teachers to enable limited-English-proficient (LEP) students to meet high academic standards. Numbers of certified teachers in each state are also presented. The Task D210 report presents information on the status of state efforts toward the development of statewide student performance standards and assessment systems, and the extent to which LEP students have been included in these state systems. State-by-state summaries are appended. (MSE)
