Administrator Forum Session II - Frequently Asked Questions about Serving English Learners in Preschool Programs, including differences between EC and K-12

In March 2023, ISBE released an updated FAQ on serving English Learners (ELs) in preschool programs. This webinar will walk through the key points—identifying ELs, developmentally appropriate screening, program requirements (TBE/TPI), and parent notification—while discussing what they mean for your PFA/PFAE programs. We will also highlight areas that are handled differently in preschool than in K-12 programs. Bring your ESL/Bilingual Program Director and your questions for an interactive Q&A.
