  2. The mission of the New England Comprehensive Center is to develop the capacity of state education agencies to assist districts and schools in improving outcomes for all students.

  3. The New England Comprehensive Center…working collaboratively… thinking systemically… acting strategically… using evidence… to improve outcomes for all students.

  5. We work with states to: • Increase their capacity to support districts and schools in implementing school reforms • Adopt proven approaches to achieve school improvement and meet student performance goals • Leverage the resources of other technical assistance providers • Link states with the resources of the Content Centers and other national resource organizations

  6. How we work: • Consult with state education officials about their priority needs and develop service plans. • Design and implement regional initiatives that address USED priorities, meet common needs, and build capacity through collaboration.

  7. Connecticut Projects • Assisted in the development of a guidance document on formative assessment • Developed an annotated bibliography as a related resource • Provided technical assistance on the evaluation of SES programs • Participated in a statewide Parent Summit

  8. Current Connecticut Projects • Highly Mobile Students • Deepen understanding: who they are; patterns of mobility, causes and consequences • Identify best practices at district and school levels • Low incidence ELL populations

  9. The Challenge • ELLs are moving out of urban districts • Trend is likely to continue • Low incidence districts are less likely to qualify for federal funding on their own • Less likely to have adequate resources

  10. Low Incidence Project Goals • Identify the challenges faced by districts with small numbers of ELL students • Develop resources that address these challenges and provide guidance on evidence-based and proven practices that meet student needs

  11. We invite you to begin this process today • What are the decisions/challenges you face as a low incidence district? • What are your most frequently asked questions? • What resource(s) would be helpful? • Are there practices you know of that are working? • Who else need to be involved in these discussions?

  12. We invite you to join a working group • To begin to address these challenges and questions • To identify best practices • To develop resources to help low incidence districts meet the needs of its ELL students
