Clarification on Home Language Survey Usage

We have received recent guidance from Dr. Jobi Lawrence, Director of Title III and Education Consultant at the Iowa Department of Education, regarding the use of the Home Language Survey. Please see below for the message.

Please be advised regarding the current use of the Home Language Survey for all students. Based on guidance from our Title III program officer, until further notice, school districts are to provide the Home Language Survey as a hard copy in its full form to new enrollees and maintain that paper copy in a student folder. This form is located on www.TransAct.com and is identified as Form A. This will allow access to the form in 23 languages.

In light of the upcoming Title III visit to Iowa next year, we will want to maintain this practice. We will provide updated information as it becomes available.
