Radcliffe, Shirley; Jessee, Ronald
This report is based on a survey of the 168 bilingual education programs operating in the U.S. in 1971-72. Of these, 157 responded to the Consolidated Program Information Report survey, which collected data on specific programs and target populations. The report provides some brief background information on Title VII of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act and on bilingual education programs in the U.S. The body of the report consists of statistical information on the 157 projects, including figures on pupil participation (data obtained from individual project applications), language of instruction, personnel development, and expenditures. Languages involved in the projects include: English as a second language, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Chinese, Chamorro, and Native American languages.
