Are English learner (EL) students in private schools eligible to receive Title III programs, services, and products?
Yes, when EL students are identified in an appropriate manner, when the local educational agency (LEA) and private school(s) within its jurisdiction have conducted meaningful and timely consultation, and, when the LEA and private school have developed a memorandum of understanding (MOU), EL students in a private school may participate in programs and receive services and products funded by Title III (Title IX, Part E, Section 9501). Private schools may not receive funds directly.
