Structured English Immersion Budget - Comprehensive
Arizona Revised Statutes §15-756.01, §15-756.03, and §15.756.04 establish procedures and provide a mechanism for determining and funding the incremental costs for educating English Learner (EL) students who are participating in Structured English Immersion (SEI) programs approved by Arizona's State Board of Education. Districts and charter schools have an opportunity to apply for funding through the SEI Fund Application request through §15-756.03(A).
The Office of English Language Acquisition Services (OELAS), including the Migrant Education Program (MEP) is a comprehensive system of support, viewed as a critical partner by Local Education Agencies, schools, teachers, families and the community. Because of our commitment to supporting programmatic excellence, Arizona’s English learner and Migrant students are prepared for high academic achievement and college and career success.
