English Learners in Oregon. Annual Report 2020-2021

ORS 327.016 directs the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) to prepare an annual report on English learner program funding and student outcomes. The report's intention is to describe the population of English Learners in Oregon and provide a summary of district and state progress towards meeting their needs and objectives. The ODE annually reports four groups of English learners: current, former, ever, and never English learners. This report consists of five sections: (1) Demographics of English Learners in Oregon in 2020-21; (2) Participation in Targeted Programs; (3) Language Development and Academic Outcomes for English Learners; (4) Attendance, Progress toward Graduation, Graduation, and Beyond; and (5) State Revenues and Expenditures for Current English Learners. [For the 2019-20 report, see ED619790.]
