MLL Blueprint and Implementation Support

The Rhode Island Department of Education released the Blueprint for MLL Success and a Strategic Plan that identifies sustained effective evidence-based practices to strengthen services and outcomes for Multilingual learners (MLLs). In alignment with RI's Blueprint for MLL Success and Strategic Plan, the Regulations Governing the Education of Multilingual Learners 200-RICR 20-30-3 have been updated.
