WestEd’s Research Study
WestEd is a nonpartisan research and development organization focused on improving education. Currently, WestEd is working to better understand how Ohio schools support English learner (EL) students. In partnership with the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce, WestEd is conducting a statewide survey. Through this effort, they hope to learn more about EL programs, student placements, and instructional models across Ohio.
Any Ohio district or school can participate.
If your district participated in the pilot survey last spring, WestEd encourages you to complete it again to provide updated information.
