Preferred term

costs of bilingual education  

Definition

  • Educators, policymakers, and others have long struggled with issues related to the additional costs involved in educating English language learners. These concerns increased after 1974, when the U.S. Supreme Court made it clear that a failure to provide specialized instruction to these children constituted a violation of law.
