The numbers and status of limited-English-proficient (LEP) students in the Austin (Texas) Independent School District (AISD) are described for the 1989-90 school year. During that year, 4,494 LEP students were served by the AISD schools: 3,481 elementary school students, 531 middle/junior high school students, and 482 high school students. The LEP population in the school system was 90% Hispanic; Vietnamese speakers were the next largest segment, at 4%. In all, there were 4,042 Hispanic students; 32 Black students; and 420 American Indian, Asian, and White students. Most (90%) LEP students in the AISD were from low-income families, and 38% were overage. Most (88%) LEP students were in regular LEP programs, with a few assigned to special education or modified instruction. Students needing additional services transferred to other schools that provide enhanced services. Such transfers in the year are detailed. In general, rates for the LEP program were similar to districtwide rates for attendance, discipline, retention, dropouts, and mean grade point average. However, compared to the districtwide ranges, LEP students performed less well in discipline at the middle and junior high levels; there were higher dropout rates and lower mean grade point average at the high school level. Data about the LEP students in the AISD are presented in four graphs and five tables. (SLD)
