The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 mandates that states develop standards related to English-language-proficiency, that they link these standards to the states' general academic standards and that they administer English-language-proficiency tests to ensure that both their language and academic needs are being met. This law also dictates that non-English speaking students receive math and reading tests at specific intervals to monitor progress. When a child is enrolled into a school, the parents must complete a Home Language Survey that helps school districts identify students that fall under these provisions as quickly as possible.
