PROGRAM: Academic Intervention for Nonpublic Schools
DESCRIPTION:
Academic intervention services (AIS) for children attending nonpublic schools supplement the instruction provided in the general curriculum and assist students in meeting the State learning standards. AIS are intended to assist students who are at risk of not achieving the State learning standards in English language arts, mathematics, social studies and/or science, or who are at risk of not gaining the knowledge and skills needed to meet or exceed designated performance levels on State assessments. To improve student performance on State assessments, nonpublic school teachers of fourth and eighth grade students who scored at level one or two on the English language arts and mathematics State assessments receive in-depth professional development services to improve their content knowledge and develop appropriate instructional strategies.

PROGRAM: Bilingual Education
DESCRIPTION:
The following is a summary of the proposed grants and contracts under the Bilingual Categorical Funds which support initiatives to address the needs of Limited English Proficient /English Language Learners (LEP/ELL); consistent with the Regents Policy Paper on Bilingual Education EL 3204, Commissioner's Regulation Part 154; the Department's Strategic Plan for Raising Standards (Regents Reform Agenda and Race to the Top), with special focus on the implementation best practices for the Education of LEP/ELLs.
The activities specifically addressed are in the areas of higher standards, new assessments involving LEP/ELLs, the preparation and certification of bilingual and ESL staff to incorporate the standards and assessments into the curriculum for LEP/ELL, parent empowerment to increase their knowledge and understanding of LEP/ELL requirements, capacity building at the school and district levels and most especially, the provision of equitable services for LEP/ELLs. Many of these initiatives will focus on high-need districts.
Programs / Initiatives;
1 - Regional Bilingual Education - Resource Networks (RBE-RN) will provide technical assistance to school districts, especially those where LEP/ELLs fail to meet State/Federal standards/requirements, to build and/or strengthen their capacity to serve LEP/ELLs through CR Part 154 and NCLB Title III programs.
2 - NYSED has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with
the CUNY Graduate Center—Research Institute for the Study of Language
in Urban Society (RISLUS) and PhD Program in Urban Education to:
Provide a leadership development program for 30-35 school principals
of schools that are in need of improvement or persistently low
achieving with large ELL/LEP populations to create quality programs
for emergent bilingual students. The program will include a series
of professional development seminars to help these principals create
materials and staffing conditions necessary to produce tangible
improvements in the educational achievement of emergent bilinguals,
on-site support to schools and guidance to principals on program
evaluation and improvement plans, and an evaluation of the impact
of the program on student outcomes.
Conduct a documentation and dissemination study of past and present
practices in schools that have been successful in the education
of emergent bilinguals.
Assist and advise the state in aligning the Native Language Arts
and English as a Second Language standards with the Common Core
English Language Arts standards.
Through a partnership with Bridges, facilitate the development
of quality programming for Students with Interrupted Formal Education
(SIFE). Bridges is a successful research-based intervention to
address the needs of this underserved population of students.
The program will share the work being conducted as part of a pilot
program in New York City to districts working with SIFE in West
New York through providing related professional development and
supporting plans for Bridges start-ups.
3 - The Intensive Teacher Institute (ITI) is designed to increase the pool of certified bilingual and ESL teachers in New York by helping bilingual and ESL provisional preparatory teachers (PPT) meet the course requirements for certification in approved institutions of higher education (IHE).
4 - The Quality Review Protocol (QRP) for LEP/ELLs Program will be developed to make sure that the instructional quality and academic rigor of bilingual education and freestanding ESL programs are aligned with New York State’s requirements, including Education Law 3204 and 3602; Part 154 of the Regulations of the Commissioner of Education (CR) for services to LEP/ELLs; general requirements under CR Parts 100, 117, 200; teacher certification requirements under CR Parts 80.9 and 80.10; and federal mandates under Titles I and III of the NCLB. It will provide professional development for school leadership, instructional staff, and all other service providers working with LEP/ELL students.

6 - The Bilingual/ESL Teacher Leadership Academy (BETLA) Program was created to instill leadership skills in exemplary teachers who then work to support fellow teachers working with LEP/ELLs. The BETLA II will support bilingual and ESL teachers from Long Island and Westchester School Districts. Phase 1 of the program provides leadership training to carefully selected teachers in an intensive summer academy. Model demonstration/LABs classrooms for excellence in teaching and learning are established in Phase 2. Phase 2 also continues the teacher leadership training.
7 – Hispanic Youth Leadership Institute (HYLI) is designed to develop leadership, public speaking skills, and an understanding of the NYS Legislative process in for 200 Hispanic (junior and senior) high school students studying NYS Law and Government. Prior to attending a three-day institute, students receive training on the legislative process and then they select legislative bills to research and debate. At the institute, students meet with legislators and debate actual legislative bills in a mock assembly session. Students receive scholarships from legislators.
8 - CUNY-NYSIEB Leadership Program - Ten new schools in need of
improvement or persistently low achieving will be selected through
a competitive grant application to receive a grant of $30,000.00,
