who are multilingual learners?
multilingual learners are all students who are developing proficiency in two or more languages at home or in school. this includes all students who have ever been classified as english learners: students who are currently classified as english learners, former english learner students who were reclassified, and students being monitored for their first few years after reclassification. english learner students are eligible for a variety of services and supports, including english language development, although their families may waive these services. multilingual learners also include heritage language speakers who were never classified as english learners and come to school with exposure to a home language other than english. american indian and alaska native students may be classified as english learners or multilingual learners learning their heritage language.
