Description

North Carolinas English Learner population has decreased by 15,513 students, following revised rules for identifying and exiting students from English Learner programs. State officials attribute this decline to improved accuracy in identifying students needing language support, rather than increased immigration enforcement. The new criteria ensure students receive appropriate assistance for academic success, despite heightened immigration enforcement operations causing concern and student absences in some areas.
