Title: Language-Related Legislation
Body: Several important pieces of legislation that could have significant impacts on language education are being proposed. --- The FLAVA Board is following several legislative issues that could affect foreign language and dual language education. First, The House Education and Labor Committee announced plans for reform of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act - currently known as No Child Left Behind. Stakeholders can send the committee their input and suggestions at eseacomments@mail.house.gov. The deadline for comments was March 26, 2010. Second, there are several proposed bills supporting language education: * H.R.3359 U.S. and the World Education Act* to promote international education in elementary and secondary schools and develop an international research repository through a federal competitive grant program. * H.R.3753 Providing Resources to Improve Dual Language Education Act* to award grants to partnerships for the implementation of dual language demonstration programs designed to enhance and assess bi-literacy, bilingualism, and multicultural skills of low-income minority and LEP students from preschool through grade five. *H.R.4065 Foreign Language Education Partnership Program Act* to establish partnership programs in foreign languages and to make incentive payments to develop and maintain model programs that support articulated language learning in kindergarten through grade 12. You can find more information about these bills and look up your legislator's contact information at http://www.house.gov and http://www.senate.gov Source: Foreign Language Association of Virginia --- The Obama administration's priorities for ESEA can be found at http://www2.ed.gov/policy/elsec/leg/blueprint/blueprint.pdf Source: National Clearinghouse for English Language Acquisition
