To figure out better ways to serve their English language learner (ELL) students, the state departments of education in the West Region states of Arizona, Nevada, and Utah, who are members of the English Learner Alliance, asked REL West to help them put together a more detailed picture of two particular groups of K-12 ELL students who seem to stall out in their progress toward English language proficiency and/ or academic achievement. To learn more about this study, the "REL West Research Digest" spoke with Eric Haas, a Senior Research Associate at WestEd, who leads REL West staff providing the Alliance technical assistance and data analysis.
