Welcome to the Administrator's Resource Kit

This resource kit is designed to support district and school administrators in the creation, enhancement, and sustainability of effective programming for English Learners and their families. Educators can also use these resources to facilitate their efforts to foster a supportive school environment in which English Learners can thrive academically and socially.

Districts and schools have legal obligations for serving English Learners. The Administrator’s Resource Kit summarizes these obligations and organizes them into the essential components, or tasks for creating, enhancing, and sustaining an English Learner program. The Administrator's Resource Kit contains free-standing resources that can be accessed and reviewed individually, or as a collection, depending on the needs and interests of the user. The Tasks are featured throughout this resource, but the full listing with key information is also available as an individual file.
